For Oki Sato of Japanese firm Nendo and Italian designer Luca Nichetto, collaborating on Isole Modular Seating was a study in virtual connectivity. An update on the tradition of Tanka, where one person starts a poem and a second completes it, they traded ideas via iPhone. “I sent Luca rough sketches…of soft shapes like pebbles or islands,” says Oki. (Isole means “islands” in Italian.) “So I designed the armature as a bridge to connect the islands into individual seats,” adds Luca, “and each seat into a modular sofa.”A truly unique sofa concept, with the striking modular seating’s cushions and optional armrests in molded CMHR foam and upholstered in stretch fabrics that suit both residential and contract interiors. Powder-coated steel base features low slim legs for a floating effect. To complement any configuration, the series also includes integrated round, square or rectangular side tables. Martin Kornbek Hansen, CEO of maker &Tradition, sums it up nicely: “Their different perspectives came together as one vision, one entity.”
