Concept

The collection features a range of materials that set every creation apart, underlining the sophisticated spirit that looks to the future, while at the same time paying tribute to the great design of the past: accents to scatter freely in residential spaces, but also versatile solutions for high performance workplaces and luxury interiors.The whole collection is made with a swivel base in polished orcoated cast aluminium. Equipped with an internal damper, the base offers a self-regulating systemto ensure immediate comfort.KNcomes in twodifferent versions. In the low model KN01the proportions between seat and shell height, combined with ample measurements, provide a balanced blend of compactness and comfort. The curved design has a minimalist tone, while offering maximum relaxation for those who choose it.A second version KN02with more compact and extended proportions is offered with a headrestand a practical manual mechanism built into the armrestenables the chair to recline, adapting to posture variations. Thanks to the mechanism hidden under the upholstery, it is possible to shift from an upright position to a more relaxing angle, and to block the back in any position. To provide flexibility and remarkable freedom of movement,as well as extreme comfort for long periods of time, the mechanism can be returned to its original posture with a soft, supple motion. The configuration can also be completed with a footrest KN03suitable and a seat cushion padded with down, complete withlower back support. The KN04 armchair and the KN05 settee represent the evolution of the KN02 model, in a lower version with more compact proportions. These pieces are ideal to complete corners in the home where relaxation is a matter of style. Both have a fixed structure in chrome-plated or coated metal rod, and a shell manufactured in polyurethane, covered in leather or fabric. The delicate curved forms of the shell give the seating a timeless elegance and an immediately recognizable style. The versatile design offers situations of absolute relaxation, rigor and purity, a contemporary image and extreme functional quality. An ideal combination that gives rise to a new aesthetic of everyday life, for harmonious insertion in residential contexts and collective spaces, from waiting rooms to hotel lobbies, expressing a clear identity thanks to the extension of the traditional codes of home furnishings, embodying multiple combinations and infinite compositional options.The new entries in the KN collection, the KN06 armchair and KN07 chair, stand out for their comfort, elegance and ergonomic design. Perfect for the office or the home, they have been conceived to adapt to new habitat needs, and can be inserted in any context. The characteristic feature of the KN06 is its shell made in fiberglass, coated in the colors glossy white or glossy black, or covered in fabric or leather, delicately resting on four fixed legs, or on a height-adjustable swivel base in the version with four spokes on glides, or five spokes on casters. The slim, enveloping structure contains a soft seat cushion that makes the collection more complete and well-balanced in terms of function and image. KN07 is a chair without armrests that stands out for its poised design that joins the inner and outer surfaces in a single, soft, fluid line. Covered in fabric or leather, the KN07 is an ideal choice to complete corners in the home devoted to work or study. Again in this latest variant, the shell rests on four fixed legs, or on a height-adjustable swivel base with four spokes on glides or five spokes on casters.
Thanks to its aesthetic impact based on a perfect interface between industrial and technological quality, the KN collection represents a solution destined to last in time, adapting to different contexts and uses.
