DUNE, designed by pioneering Swedish design studio Front, offers an exciting new response to the constantly changing needs of our work places and public spaces. DUNE has been developed for the spheres where the need for informal meetings intersects with the demand for relaxed seating. DUNE garnered considerable attention as a prototype under development in Offecct Lab when it was exhibited at the Salone del Mobile in Milan in 2017. Dune is now being launched as a novelty at the Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair in February 2018.
"We are really satisfied with the lightness of DUNE", says designers Anna Lindgren and Sofia Lagerkvist, the members of Front. "This is, after all, a large piece of furniture that easily can seat up to eight people."
Despite being so delicate, DUNE stands firmly on the ground. Its legs not only support the asymmetrical seat, they also rise above it to hold four table tops that can be equipped with the latest generation usb-sockets. The ottoman offers users a “touch down” with high comfort with possibilities to interaction, face to face and digital.
DUNE is an oasis that comes to life when used, says Anders Englund, Design Manager at Offecct, answering his own rhetorical question what this new furniture typology from Offecct is.
