Relaxing on the DS-196 means getting right away from everyday routine. Thanks to its extraordinary aesthetics and sublime level of comfort, the sofa naturally becomes the focal point of every room. Its agreeably curving lines break away from conventional standards and make for a maximum of flexibility both on where the model can be positioned in the room and on how you can relax on it. Its various seating depths make the DS-196 ideal for sitting, lounging or lying – on your own or with someone else. The invitation of its open styling, the painstaking detail of its craftsmanship and its exquisite combination of materials give the sofa its powerful personality. The visual effect is further heightened by the tactile experience of the blending of top-quality leather and superb textiles. The DS-196 is, however, also available upholstered completely in leather. One of its unique features is the light and airy effect created by the back section – a panel of fabric intriguingly edged in supple leather – whose caressing embrace transforms the sofa into a snug island for encounter and communication. Using the same design concept, Gordon Guillaumier has also created a practical side table which boasts amorphous lines and an interesting mix of chromium steel and wood. Its fascination also lies in its single-column base which enables it to be pulled right up close to the sofa.
