SOL Ben Wu captures the magic of faraway lands: a reinterpretation of the Sixties look evokes both European elegance and Asian sensitivity. Frame in wood covered in high density polyurethane foam. Seat and backrest cushions in medium/firm polyurethane foam with ribbed quilting. Base with wood frame covered in the same upholstery as the armchair, containing a fully rotational swivel pin with self-aligning mechanism. The base is in laser cut metal in the finishes: - bright light gold, - bright chrome, - bright black chrome, - matt nickel. Given the particular assembly of the product, the upholstery is not removable. Interiors designed by Ben Wu. A futuristic architect, creative, among China’s top ten who has designed Rhythm collection for Longhi. This contemporary furniture blends perfectly with Longhi’s style. Pieces with essential lines and architectural volumes which have been conceived to be like a tile in a mosaic in harmony with the surrounding space. “Through the centuries, the rhythm of music has been integrated into Eastern and Western cultures. The elegance in those sounds is enthusiasm for life itself. Like music, having rhythm is such a fundamental aspect that I wanted to include it in my collection, thus making every shape fl uid and harmonious. My design, called Rhythm, does not only describe the artistic background of the present life, but also symbolises an almost futuristic lifestyle, always moving and full of rhythm.” (Ben Wu) Love for details, passion and creativity make Longhi an internationally acclaimed brand that is deeply rooted in the furniture culture. This adventure began 60 years ago and this year the company is celebrating its anniversary with an important collection of pieces to admire, touch and live. The 2019 Collection includes seating systems, armchairs, tables, chairs and complements with a polyhedral, transversal style. A fresh design language has emerged from new collaborations that mark the evolution of the company’s design strategy.
