BIENVENUE IS AN UPHOLSTERED CHAIR FOR CONTRACT SALES. ITS PADDING MAKES IT COMFORTABLE TO SIT ON FOR LONG PERIODS AND ITS LOW, ROUNDED ARMRESTS ALLOW IT TO SLIDE EASILY UNDER THE TABLE.

THE IDEA BEHIND THE BIENVENUE IS CUSHIONING, WHICH INSTEAD OF RESTING ON THE CHAIR IS ACTUALLY PART OF THE STRUCTURE.
WITH THIS IN MIND, THE WOODEN STRUCTURE IS MADE UP OF A MULTI-PLY FRAME SUPPORTED BY SOLID ASH LEGS. THE BACK LEGS ARE BUILT INTO THE FRAME, FROM THE BASE TO THE TOP.

MILLING PARALLEL TO THE UPRIGHTS ALLOWS THE CUSHIONING TO BECOME PART OF THE FRAME: FROM THE FRONT, THE FABRIC DISAPPEARS TO REVEAL ASH UPRIGHTS IN THE PADDED BACKREST. FROM THE BACK, THE TOP OF THE UPRIGHTS ARE SHEATHED IN THE PADDING THAT SURROUNDS THEM. THE COROLLA OF THE FRAME IS CROWNED BY A CYLINDER OF COATED FOAM, PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR THE BACK THAT IS SMOOTH TO THE TOUCH.

BIENVENUE IS AVAILABLE IN THREE COLOURS – NATURAL, GREY AND BLACK. THE PADDING CAN BE MADE IN JUST ONE FABRIC OR DIVIDED INTO SEVERAL DISTINCT PARTS: THE COROLLA, THE SEAT AND THE BACKREST.
