Description
DESCRIPTION: The rigorous and welcoming modular seating system Dylan is also available in a version with a more compact seat depth. Introducing Dylan Small, a system that combines the sophisticated aesthetics of its cushions with the lightness of a contemporary base raised 13,5 cm from the floor. The upholstered volumes are reduced in depth, making Dylan Small a perfect fit even in smaller domestic environments or in Hospitality spaces. The project expresses the perfect balance between the simplicity of the design and the wealth of refined details with a couture flavour, such as the sophisticated stitching and the sinuous curve that outlines the backrests and armrests. Dylan Small picks up the complex manufacturing technique used in the original Dylan suspended base, in which leather or fabric strips are sewn together with straps and marked out by stitching that adds rhythm to the seat cushioning. All the expert craftsmanship accrued in Minotti’s 75 years of heritage concentrated in a compact and versatile volume.
TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS:
Structure: Seat in metal-reinforced plywood. The seat structure is padded with high- resilience, variable-density polyurethane foam with high-rubber-content elastic webbing to maximize comfort. The plywood armrest and backrest structures are covered in high-resilience, variable-density polyurethane foam, then encased in breathable heat-bonded polyester quilted fibre laminated to white cotton fabric. All of the materials employed in manufacturing the quilting are hypoallergenic and made with recycled materials. Tailoring of the backrest/armrest structure upholstery and of the seat cushions is distinguished by piping and couture-inspired soft top- stitching that convey an immediate sense of comfort, thanks to the slight curve of the backrest and armrest. To increase fluffiness, the backrest and armrest upholstery has quilting that joins the thick heat-bonded fibre encased in white cotton fabric to the upholstery. The structural base is sheathed in strips of fabric or leather, tailored using the same techniques used in the Connery seating system, stitched together using laces embellished with fine hand-finished stitching.
Table-top surfaces: The element with 1 armrest cm 221 with TOP H has a top laminated MDF and aluminium, 18 mm thick, in ash veneer with open pore Moka colour lacquer finish or open-pore Tobacco colour stain.
Covers: Upholstery for the structure and seat cushions is completely removable in all versions (fabric and leather).
Cushions: Seat cushions, padded in high-loft channelled goose down to lend greater softness and increase comfort, undergo routine sanitization as specified in EC Regulation No. 1069/2009 (Assopiuma certified, Gold Label). They are then encased in breathable heat-bonded fibre laminated to white hypoallergenic cotton fabric. Seat cushions with high resilience, variable- density polyurethane foam insert are covered in the upper part with temperature-sensitive polyurethane material.
Bases: Weight-bearing, in extruded aluminium with varnished polished anti- fingerprint Bronze or Pewter colour finish. Bronze or black colour protective polyethylene glides to match the base finish.
