Led by Karim Rashid we managed to create a seat that respects our own universe when inhabit public spaces. As Virginia Woolf, own room that provides privacy and frees us.
Float is a divan contemporary designed for multiple uses. This slim floating seat with built wall, gives us total privacy in open environments to sit back, hang the scarf and coat, or just wait in the booth that has their enormous support.
One of the main features of the designs are Karim is its colorful combinations. With Float have found a perfect balance, because we attach greater importance to the textures and color reserve notes to small details like the headrests or pads.
Each component of Float (arms, seat, back and headrest) can be selected in a different fabric. There is also a completely uniformed, upholstered in fabric only.
Float is available in 3 sizes: two sofas with low back and high back sofa. The latter has several settings, in addition to the arms straight, we can select an inclined arm used to lie down upon him as a couch. Also, the high back, as if it were a wall, allows incorporate two hangers.
For cushions and headrests Karim has also designed a series of prints called Cairo. The collection is inspired by his native Egypt. Under extremely contemporary optics, Karim combines tradition and personal memories, tinged with bright colors and drawings of organic geometry.
