About Spark Sofá

Spark é um sofá concebido tanto para uso interior como exterior. A forma monobloco apresenta linhas suaves e fluidas, sem arestas duras. O sofá é fabricado em policarbonato, um material transparente mas resistente, que suporta impactos e as intempéries. Sob luz ténue, o corpo transparente evoca o aspeto de uma faísca. A montagem envolve duas partes, uma vez que o assento é colocado sobre a base do corpo principal. O Spark é disponibilizado em versões de um e de dois lugares, medindo 1300 por 800 por 950 milímetros e 2500 por 800 por 950 milímetros. O design adapta-se a uma grande variedade de estilos de interiores.
