Gala

Gala is a modular fabric sofa.‎Structure in wood padded with variable-density polyurethane foam (40IP and 35IM for seating and 40PH for backrest) clothed with velfodera coupled with velveteen 200 gr/sqm for seating and with resin 100 gr/sqm for backrest.‎ The anchoring between the backrest and the seat is guaranteed by painted metal supports.‎Black ABS feet (h 4 cm).‎The back cushions are made in variable-density polyurethane foam (35IM - 25IM) clothed with velfodera coupled with velveteen 150 gr/sqm.‎Cristina Celestino designs for Saba the new Gala seating system, thus establishing a collaboration with the company.‎ The project responds to the desire of investigating the sofa as a place and not only as a mere functional product, to the aspiration of dematerializing the very concept of traditional living and to create a sofa with a strong iconographic design component.‎With a subtle reference to the retro-future atmosphere of sofas that inhabited the ‘70s, the new collection explores the flexibility of the upholstered object with a no gender, sculptural and sophisticated volume, which lends itself to interpreting different visions of interiors, from residential to hospitality contexts.‎ The central backbone is a vertical element that draws pleated curves ready to accommodate, both on the front as well as on the back, a seat-pouf element of different depths.‎  The many possible configurations give life to a “hybrid” and flexible sofa with which one can interact.‎In a collective utopian imagination, the name Gala is associated to the concept of elegance and sophistication, but Gala is also an ornament, a decoration that is created with a rippled textile band.‎ Gala is also one of the planets in Star Wars and an indirect tribute to the world of stars, to the optimism and the avant-garde that characterized that era.‎ Подробная информация от производителя о GALA Saba Italia
