Description
Part of the Daylight outdoor seating system, the Daylight armchair - available in two different sizes or as a large, comfortable loveseat - combines circular shapes and elegant proportions. In a masterful interplay of lines, the curved form of the backrests and armrests unfolds like an embracing fan, while the teak base adds a natural aesthetic refinement. With visual lightness and contemporary style, the Daylight armchairs and loveseat blend seamlessly into any open-air setting, transforming every space into a haven of relaxation or conviviality, in harmony with the surrounding environment.
Structure: Upper frame in tubular stainless steel with Bronze colour epoxy powder-coat and glossy anti-fingerprint finish. The steel structure is clad in woven Taslan (air-jet weaving and texturizing process) 8 mm Ø polypropylene cord. The cord is available in Blue, Moss, Rust, Sand, Teak or Dark Brown colour. Near where the upper frame is coupled to the wood base, there are varnished polished Bronze colour aluminium anchors, with DELRIN® spacers.
Cushions: Seat and backrest cushions in high-resilience polyurethane foam and eco-friendly, water-repellent fibre. In order to better protect the padding from water and humidity, all the cushions are encased in water-repellent polyester slipcovers. All the accessories - zippers, thread - are water-repellent and therefore appropriate for outdoor use.
Covers: Seat and backrest cushion slipcovers are completely removable.
Base: weight-bearing, composed of a frame in solid teak (Tectona Grandis - First European Quality) with natural finish, 40 mm thick, and a circular stainless-steel base with Bronze colour epoxy powder-coat and glossy anti-fingerprint finish. Underframe frame in teak slats (Tectona Grandis - First European Quality), natural finish. The teak is kiln-dried. Crafted on CNC machines and assembled with dowel joinery and glue. Rests on rigid castors in polyamide with thermoplastic polyurethane strip and stainless-steel support. The castors allow the element to swivel 360°.
Designer
GamFratesi
Minotti and GamFratesi began collaborating in 2018. The design of GamFratesi, architecture firm established in 2006 in Copenhagen by Italian-Danish duo Enrico Fratesi and Stine Gam, is rooted in the perfect fusion of tradition and innovation, craftsmanship and technology, rigour and poetry. With their different cultural backgrounds, Stine Gam and Enrico Fratesi model their creative intuitions into designs that draw from both the classic decor and artisan tradition of Denmark and the classic Italian intellectual and conceptual approach.
A tried and tested melting pot of styles, expressed in furniture, objects, and installations with a silent elegance, in the production techniques used and in the meticulous attention to detail applied to the creations. The result is a sophisticated interpretation of Scandinavian minimalism, with many subtle, yet striking Nordic hints.
