Bend Modular Seating System Modular Seating System

Bend Modular Seating System Modular Seating System is an innovative furniture design solution that exemplifies the evolution of contemporary seating for both domestic and commercial environments. Created by designer Marc Scimé, this versatile system represents a sophisticated response to the changing dynamics of modern lifestyles, where traditional boundaries between work, leisure, and social spaces continue to blur. The system's distinctive feature lies in its modular composition, incorporating softened angular shapes that can be configured into various arrangements, from intimate tete-a-tete sofas to extensive seating clusters suitable for public spaces such as airport lounges. The design employs advanced materials and manufacturing techniques, utilizing aluminum components produced through extrusion and die-cast processes, finished with powder coating for outdoor durability. The seating system is upholstered with a state-of-the-art polypropylene textile that combines durability with a natural feel, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. The system's adaptability is demonstrated through its ability to create varied spatial arrangements, with components that can be assembled to form configurations ranging from small stools to comprehensive seating islands. This flexibility allows for the creation of personalized zones and clustered meeting points, with seats that can be oriented at different angles to optimize social interaction or engagement with surroundings. The design, which earned a Silver A' Design Award in the Furniture Design category, showcases exceptional attention to ergonomic comfort, aesthetic appeal, and functional versatility. Its dimensions and proportions are carefully considered, with the three-seat sofa configuration measuring 2600mm in width, 800mm in depth, and 730mm in height, with a seat height of 380mm, exemplifying the system's commitment to both comfort and practical application.
