Unlimited

Francesco Rota, 2024

Unlimited is the seating system by Desalto distinguished for its limitless modularity. The starting point is the square-shaped element and the backrest that wraps above it, fundamental components of the system that allow combining various seats to create pouf, armchairs, chaise lounges, and daybeds.

Mounted on metal runners with an oval shape, the seats appear to float in space, creating a visual effect of lightness that enhances the finishes of the metal, a foundational material of Desalto. The decisive, squared, and sculptural design conceals meticulous craftsmanship on the softness: the varied thicknesses of the foams have been carefully studied to provide great comfort and support

Modularity offers extensive possibilities that allow for meeting any setup requirement, whether for small domestic spaces or larger contract environments. This concept perfectly adapts to various situations, enabling flexible and creative customization of spaces.

Thanks to the wide range of available materials, colors, and designs, it is possible to create harmonious environments consistent with the desired style, while ensuring practicality and comfort.

Unlimited evolves with the introduction of three new corner modules – 90°, 45° Internal, and 45° External – designed to expand the system’s compositional possibilities. These elements allow for the creation of more fluid and articulated configurations, adapting flexibly to both Home and Contract settings. Thanks to their modularity, it becomes possible to design tailor-made solutions, from small relaxation corners to large compositions for collective spaces, while always maintaining the collection’s essential and refined character.

The new corner modules expand the compositional possibilities of sofas, allowing for tailor-made configurations that seamlessly adapt to different settings. Thanks to their versatility, it is possible to create welcoming and sophisticated solutions for Home environments, as well as more structured and functional compositions for Contract spaces, meeting the need for flexibility and customization. The perfect integration of aesthetics and functionality makes each configuration unique, offering an ideal balance between elegance and performance in both residential and professional settings.
