Flow Slim Collection

Designed by Jean Marie Massaud

The Flow collection was born in 2009 from an idea by Jean Marie Massaud. 
The starting point was the chair: elegant profile and enveloping shell, it is characterised by the possibility of combining different bases. Over time, the project has evolved to meet the needs of the market and in 2014, the Flow line was enriched with the Slim variation, a small armchair with sinuous lines and a contemporary character. Like the original chair, it fits in harmoniously with any environment.

Flow Slim provides a wide range of materials, colours and finishes.
In its most ICONIC VERSION is available in different colours and can be completed with upholstery in the over 200 fabrics of the MDF Italia collection.

The TEXTILE VERSION, characterised by exquisite upholstery work, is fully upholstered in fabric or leather, to be naturally located in every soft business and residential space.

Then, FLOW LEATHER comes coated in two types of leather. The Anilina leather is offered in seven different colours. It is micro-perforated externally, while inside it is smooth. It is a premium leather, suitable for specific home environments such as dining rooms, living areas, but also for home office and smart working spaces. The Nuvola leather, conceived for business and public venues such as restaurants, hotels, offices, is a leather micro-perforated internally, while it is smooth on the outside: it is a contemporary, dynamic, high-impact covering, which at times recalls the look of sports car seats and comes in eleven colour tones.

Specs

FLOW SLIM

Version with mass-pigmented shell (gloss outside)
The shell, made of polycarbonate through injection moulding, is mass-pigmented in the matt colours white, lead grey and mud, and has a standard double finish: gloss outside, and microgoffered inside.

Version with matt painted shell
The injection moulded polycarbonate shell features a paint finish in the matt colours white, lead grey and mud.

Upholstery (countershell)
The seatings can be completed with upholstery: a thermoformed padded countershell with a small pad made of quilted polyurethane and polyester wadding. The padded versions can be upholstered in fabric or leather. Removable upholstery; extra cover available on request.

Upholstered PAD, optional accessory
Made with polyurethane and polyester wadding, and with quilting that is thermally bonded to the fabric. This special manufacturing technique endows the texture patterns and the padding with a three-dimensional look, while ensuring quality and durability over time.

FLOW SLIM LEATHER

Padded shell. Injection moulded polycarbonate shell, cold foam shaped on the load-bearing frame. The leather cover is not removable and covers the armchair completely.

Every armchair can be personalized thanks to two different types of leather, to the alternation of smooth leather parts and parts in microperforated leather, and to matching or contrast stitching:

Nuvola
Rigorous and versatile, smooth grain leather upholstery with mineral tanning, featuring full and intense colours.
The armchair has smooth leather on the outside and micro-perforated leather with stitching in same tone on the inside.

Anilina
Luxurious and sophisticated, top-quality upholstery, full grain, pure anilina, with a soft and silky hand; distinctive for its natural tanning, the leather demonstrates all of its material and its innumerable shades. The armchair has micro-perforated leather on the outside and a smooth inside with contrast stitching.

FLOW SLIM TEXTILE

Shell composed of a thermoformed and padded countershell with a small pad made of quilted polyurethane and polyester wadding at the front, and upholstery with zips in the lower part of the chair. 
The textile part is made of removable fabric or leather, which can be supplemented with additional upholstery.
