Revolutionary back-push mechanism
DS-164 can be transformed from an open sofa into an elegant chaise longue in a single movement, while the backrest can be stylishly rotated infinitely by 360°. The modular seat island, presented in organic curves, impresses with its expressive spatial presence, innovative functionality and playful approach to the classic expectations of a sofa. A furnishing element that individually adapts to every floor plan and every need.
An exquisite drink in hand, following the flames of the open fireplace within the room, and then watching the soothing activity of nature through the opposite, panorama window in no time after that?
With DS-164, it’s no problem – thanks to Dutch designer Hugo de Ruiter. By integrating dynamic elements, he wanted to design a piece of furniture that could be used in a
wide variety of ways without losing its elegance. The basic idea of a movable backrest that would meet all these requirements was quickly found.
But executing this as a functioning piece of furniture free of the fetters of the laws of linearity posed a challenge – one met with decisive success: with the 360° rotatable backrests on
DS-164, another chapter in Swiss furniture history was written in 2003.
By de Sede, of course.
