Ligne Roset

A modular collection of seating which is both rigorous and convivial, Malhoun's success lies in the contrast between the pure geometry of its seat and feet, and the warm welcome afforded by its buttoned back and randomly-distributed back cushions. Its low, horizontal proportions, both in terms of the seat and the back, visually broaden its dimensions and give a striking impression of lightness.

CONSTRUCTION
Panels of particleboard clad in polyether foam and 200g/m2 polyester quilting.

COMFORT
Suspension of seat via blocks of linked biconic Bonnell springs in steel wire. Integral seat cushion in high resilience polyether Bultex foam 32 kg/m3 - 2.8 kPa with comfort layer in Bultex foam 26 kg/m3 - 1.4 kPa. Integral back cushion in Bultex foam 26 kg/m3 - 1.4 kPa. Feather-filled back/arm cushions (90% down/10% feathers), compressibility H 88 mm, with compartmented liner.

MAKING-UP
Overstitched steams on edges of seat and back. 'Goutte d'eau' stitching at junction of seat and back. Covers are fixed, and should be cleaned in situ. Back quilted with 200 g/m2 polyester quilting, with small square buttons on front (one row) and rear (two rows). Some degree of creasing may become apparent on the seat: this is entirely due to the large surface area, and is in no way indicative of a fault with the foam interiors; any such creases may be smoothed away by hand.
