VVD Collection | Van Duysen 的现代日床设计

Together with the team of the Research an Development Centre of B-B Italia, Vincent Van Duysen created an object which is reminiscent of these classics, but with a clear identity. Working closely together through discussions, prototypes and material research, the day bed went through different transformations and resulted in a series of elements to sit or lie on where, taking B-B Italia’s reputation into account, the priorities of the design lay in the quality, comfort and permanence. 与研究开发中心一起研究B的开发中心

The day bed is a flat thin seat combined with a slim steel structure. Its floating, light appearance is emphasized by adding one pure curve. For the other elements a concept of a central base has been later developed. 日床是一个与细长钢结构结合的平的薄阀座。通过添加一个纯曲线来强调其浮动、光的外观。对于其他要素，后来开发了一个中心基地的概念。

The different heights and widths of the seats give them different meanings and uses. The rotation base of each chair increases the comfort and communicative quality. By gradually thinning the back and over-sizing the width of the seat, adding armrests is unnecessary and the seat has different sort of comfort. Certain models have an extra cushion for lower back support. 座位的不同高度和宽度赋予它们不同的含义和用途。每个椅子的旋转底座增加了舒适性和通信质量。通过逐渐减薄座椅的背部和过度调整宽度，不需要添加扶手，并且座椅具有不同的舒适性。某些型号具有额外的缓冲垫，用于下背部支撑。

Although the units have a contemporary design, the simplicity of the design and the variety of materials make them flexible in use and surrounding. Some of the tone down colours combined with a black base and overall leather finish, allow the chair to blend in with a classic interior; opposite to that expression, the seat coloured yellow with a yellow base and woollen fabric is much younger and a real eye catcher in any interior. The day bed and its derivatives can be placed in different combinations, so all positions between sitting and lying down can be obtained. 尽管这些单元具有现代设计，但设计的简单性和各种材料使得它们在使用和周围的灵活性。部分色调颜色搭配黑色底座和整体皮革饰面，使椅子与经典内饰融合；与此表达相反，黄色的黄色底座和羊毛织物是年轻得多，在任何内饰中都是真正的捕眼器。日床及其衍生物可以以不同的组合放置，因此可以获得坐姿和躺下之间的所有位置。
