On Top Are Seat Cushions Intended As Comfortable Mattresses To Stretch Out On And Several Shapes Of Back And Armrest Cushion, All Containing A New Upholstery Giving Ribes A Particularly Lived-In And Soft Look. Colour Comes Into Play In The Painted Frames In Shades Of Anthracite, Sage And Clay. These Same Tones Are Then Picked Up In The Back And Arm Supports Combining The Colour Sage And Clay With A Natural Coloured Interlacing And Anthracite To One In A Matching Shade, And The Same For The Brackets Of The Roller Sections. The Textile Choice Is Also Extensive And Colourful With Designs That Have Been Inspired By Traditional Fabrics Collected During Numerous Trips To South America, Reinterpreted And Redesigned Using Very Clear Colour Schemes That Still Leave A Wide Choice Of Different Combinations Allowing Maximum Customisation.

There Is Also A Choice Of Profile Colours In Natural, Blue And Red Tones. Because It Is So Versatile, Ribes Can Also Be Reconfigured Over Time By Adding New Elements As Well As Altering The Functional Use Of Existing Ones. By Substituting, Adding Or Varying The Position Of The Back And Arm, A Sommier Can Turn Into A Vis-À-Vis Sofa, A Sofa Become An Island And A Corner Seating Plan Transform Into A Comfortable Bed.
