About the Item
The chair is the modern furnishing object that has occupied designers the most. No other piece of furniture has been so carefully tested, studied and closely examined for its composition, comfort and function, heart and lungs, as the chair. With its abstract form and expressionist appeal, the DS-255 seems to be a formal homage to the Russian-French painter and founder of absolute art, Wassily Kandinsky. Not mainstream, but self-confident and direct, the chair enters into dialogue with this, captivating and setting a sign of artistic freedom of design. The DS-255 stands for functional perfection, combined with the aesthetics of modern design as a bridge between tradition and future. This is the essence of the chair, this is where all its persuasiveness lies. The DS-255 conveys avant-garde attitudes, thoughts and values on the design, comfort and function of timeless Classics. Whether with a low backrest or as a high-backed chair with headrest and fold-out foot section: in the armchair on the silver base, its own weight is transformed into a floating experience.

De Sede
A de Sede piece lends a strong personality to the room it occupies. One of the world’s most respected furniture design houses, de Sede’s quality Swiss craftsmanship has its foundation in a long history of making expertly designed saddles. Founded in 1965 to build on a successful family-run saddler’s workshop in Klingnau, Switzerland, de Sede now is a leading manufacturer of leather goods and furniture, including sofas, chairs and beds.
At the core of de Sede’s philosophy is a reverence for the complexity and beauty of handcrafted furniture in an age when mass-produced objects are the norm. Over the years, the atelier has built a name for itself in its modular furniture pieces, which are made using the highest quality leather upholstery. The sleek, elegant pieces incorporate functionality with beauty. Amongst their best-selling designs is the DS-600 introduced in 1972. Also known as the Non Stop sofa, it is a sensually curved, snaking modular sofa whose individual pieces can be zipped together to create multiple variations and arcs.
De Sede has collaborated with some of the world's finest design minds, enhancing the prestige and individuality of their products. Designers like Santiago Calatrava, Antonella Scarpitta, Stephan Hürlemann, Gordon Guillaumier and Philippe Malouin have all created pieces with the atelier. Ubald Klug’s 1974 DS-1025, also known as the Terrazza sofa, is an enduring favorite with its cascading levels of leather. In 2017, de Sede expanded its product line to include high-quality leather handbags, which are as thoughtfully designed and beautifully crafted as its furniture. De Sede AG is now part of the Volare Group AG and continues to handcraft its fine furniture and other goods from its factory in Klingnau.
