Sensuality, creativity and the ability to make opulence of size scic are the essence of the Fat Sofà seating collection that Patricia Urquiola creates for B&B Italia. An innovative feature is the absence of a metal base, which imparts a shape that is "crushed by the weight of its aesthetic form", where the horizontal and vertical planes dialogue in different colours and shades or with pronounced detachments, providing an escape from the conventional lines of the market. They are used as required in any environment in the home, office, waiting rooms, reception or simply to give stability to the aesthetic perspective of the seat in any situation.
The technology that the Brianza-based company is able to deploy in the Fat Sofà family defines its ability to use innovative materials. The use of visco-elastic foam, on a tubular steel frame, with a slow return, that moulds itself to the user is yet another example, applying it to the designer's flair for organic and sinuous forms.
