Saké is a strongly contemporary sofa bed that stands out for its absolute formal balance. The only sofa bed in the B&B Italia collection, it features the same seating and back elements as the system of sofas of the same name. By simply translating the seat and tilting the backrest, it transforms easily from a sofa into a bed. Upholstered either in fabric or in leather, it is available in three versions: with a right-hand armrest, with a left-hand armrest and with two armrests. The support base is made of crosspieces with rounded steel feet connected to each other by a bar.
Back
Concept
“This design comes from the search for lightness. A technological platform, magically suspended in the air like a flying carpet, with cushions added to enclose the borders, and finally, legs to ground it.
This is the basic idea of the SAKé collection, made up of pieces for seating and sleeping, designed in a simply contemporary language, connected with my proportions. I liked the idea of following in the wake of B&B Italia, of modernity.
For me, SAKé is a platform on which to float in peace. But it is also a sofa...”.
