DS-149/11 from de sede

Because her grandparents were tailors, designer Miriam Amelung knows the characteristics of fabric and leather down to the tiniest details. In her new, elegant armchair DS-149, natural folds, organic ergonomics or the intense feeling of lightness are thus essential components – as is her dedication to the material: when Miriam and Sebastian Amelung created this new de Sede sculpture, they thought about how the natural folds of a hide might look like on a comfortable armchair. The result is an object that is free from ornamental addons or special effects and is simply an armchair whose form, folds, curves and upholstery create a feeling of taking a heavenly rest break on a little cloud at this very moment. DS-149 is a lounge chair that reveals an attitude and a commitment to infinity as well as to sustainability and naturalness. With its lightweight appearance, natural folds and clear contours, it is reminiscent of a safe place of calm, in a refuge in which deep breathing and letting one’s thoughts wander seem boundless – like the passage of fluffy clouds in your favorite place, where you return to regain strength again and again.

Inviting and protective, the DS-149 armchair features elegant drapes that extend across the entire surface, making the upper material look like a gentle drape. Designer Miriam Amelung was inspired by organic features that overlap the interior of the armchair as if in a river. Designed as a free-standing seat, the DS-149 looks like a cloudy shell with clear, simple and natural shapes - soft and comfortable.

The armchair as well as the matching stool are available in Living, Select and Naturale leather. The four-star base is made of polished aluminium, the column is high-gloss chrome-plated.
