“When a majestic Greek column faits and breaks Info different pièces it transforms itself into a Gufram sitting room". The chaise longue Capitello, the armchair Attica and the coffee table Attica TL are contemporary archaeological finds that, exactly like the columns in the Erechtheion at the Acropolis in Athens - from which they find inspiration for aesthetics and dimensions - can be left out in the weather thanks to a particular finish which is suited also to outdoor use.
This project embodies the "tactile short-circuit" concept, which is an intégral part of Gufram's DNA: the appearance that simulâtes the aspect of the pentelic marble of the Parthenon is in contrast with the softness and lightness of polyuréthane, which guarantees maximum ergonomics of the seats by supporting the body weight.
Capitello, entirely finished by hand, is a faithful reproduction of an Ionie coil, that adds to its look the function of promoting rest and relaxation. Its classical shapes make it a véritable domestic sculpture whose value is not limited to simple décoration.
The armchair Attica, a transversal section of the trunk of a column, and the coffee table ATTICA TL are sculpted by hand from a block of polyuréthane, as a contemporary variant of the original production process of columns in Athens. AN the éléments in this production are painted with Guflac, the spécial and unique finish patented by Gufram that makes it possible to make polyuréthane look like leather while maintaining its flexibility and softness.
