Among the most important novelties,B&B Italia presents Noonu, a system of upholstery designed by Antonio Citterio, defined by great flexibility, elegance and absolute relaxation.
"I wanted to combine two models of elegance: the elegance of Noonu, which as soon as you bring it back into its context, with lights and objects, speaks that language. But also that of a construction site that is a bit like a theatrical stage, and like every scenography it carries within itself the measure of elegance" Piero Lissoni, Artistic Director of B&B Italia.
The Noonu system of upholstery designed by Antonio Citterio for B&B Italia comes from a common cored idea shared by previous collections that evolves in a most organic, dynamic and flexible interpretation of the theme.
Noonu features a new deep and apparently floating seat that reaches the ground, where the four basic geometries of the module hide the main structure, while a single, large seat cushion guarantees extreme comfort and a tilted back is conceived to accommodate cushions wherever needed.
The supporting structure disappears from view, creating “islands” that seem to be floating, suspended in mid-air. Sinuous geometries and organic frames of real dynamic islands.
Another element in the Noonu archipelago is the brand-new bed. Its lines evoke the design of the sofa, in particular in the headboard, an element that stands out immediately for its sober impact, attracting the eye and enveloping the body.
The new Atoll armchair is defined by thin metal legs that echo the style of the sofa and by marked linearity and softness.
B&B Italia enriches the line with Atoll Soft, a sofa that stands out for its accentuated roundness. A new version appears alongside the classic version, with even softer shapes and paddings.
