BACKSTAGE, THE NEW B&B ITALIA PROJECT FOR BEDROOMS IS DESIGNED BY ANTONIO CITTERIO. IT IS THE MOST INNOVATIVE AND INTERNATIONAL SOLUTION TO THE STORAGE PROBLEM OF TRADITIONAL WARDROBES. THE KEY FEATURE IS ITS REFINED AND SOPHISTICATED IMAGE: THE USE OF PRECIOUS MATERIALS, THE EXCLUSIVE FINISHING DETAILS, THE WIDE RANGE OF VARIANTS, THE BOISERIE EFFECT OF SURFACES DESIGNED FOR BACKSTAGE TO MERGE INTO VARIOUS SPACES, AND NOT ONLY INTO THE BEDROOM. THE DOOR OPENING SYSTEM INSPIRED BY CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE OFFERS A REVOLUTIONARY SOLUTION: THE INNOVATIVE MECHANISM DEVELOPED AND PATENTED BY B&B ITALIA OPENS THE FULL HEIGHT DOORS WITH SIMULTANEOUS ROTATION AND TRANSLATION (ROTO-TRANSLATION) THAT ENSURES REDUCED BULK AND BETTER ACCESSIBILITY TO INTERNAL COMPARTMENTS. BACKSTAGE ALSO PROPOSES AN EXCLUSIVE CHOICE OF ACCESSORIES AND FITTINGS THAT UNDERSCORE EXPERT CRAFTSMANSHIP AND THE QUALITY AND PURITY OF MATERIALS.

WARM AND COMFORTABLE, HUSK IS THE PERFECT EXAMPLE OF HOW TO REVERSE THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS OF A SOFA. ITS STRUCTURE IN FACT IS CREATED BY THE SOFTER, FLEXIBLE PARTS. HUSK IS AVAILABLE IN TWO SIZES. THEY BOTH HAVE A DEEP SEAT, ALTHOUGH THE SHORTER VERSION COMBINES THE SEAT WITH A BACKREST, WHEREAS IN THE LONGER VERSION, THE TWO CUSHIONED COMPONENTS ARE SEPARATED. ITS GENEROUS VOLUME IS MADE ​​LIGHTER BY THE DIFFERENT FINISHES OF ITS SUPPORTING COMPONENTS, WHILE THE DOWN FEATHER CUSHIONS GRANT MAXIMUM COMFORT. ELEGANT AND CASUAL AT THE SAME TIME, IT CHANGES ITS APPEARANCE WHETHER IT IS COVERED WITH SOLID COLUR OR MÉLANGE FABRICS. HUSK IS NOT A PLACE YOU SIT ON, RATHER YOU SIT IN. YOU ARE GREETED BY ITS EMBRACE, NEVER LOSING CONTACT WITH WHAT SURROUNDS YOU.
