Description

In Japanese, Aki means “Autumn”, and it is specially in this season that its usefulness as an umbrella stand becomes apparent. Rodolfo Bonetto, who designed it in 1975, looked to essentials when creating this minimalist and amusing, but absolutely efficient and complete object. Made in rotomoulded polyethylene, Aki is designed with four holes to accommodate that same number of umbrellas, whatever the shape and size. It can be used indoors or outdoors since, by its very calling, it has no problem with water and even on the rainiest days, introduces a dash of good spirits thanks to the range of colours in which it is available. B-Line is an Italian design house that revives historic icons of Italian design (the famed Boby trolley by Joe Colombo, Boomerang, Multichair, Toro, etc.) and produces contemporary indoor and outdoor furniture in collaboration with international designers. Founded by Giorgio Bordin, the brand spans tables, seating, complements and timeless reissues for residential, hospitality and contract environments.

Bob

B-Line > Pouf

Made in polyurethane gel and retracing an original design by Joe Colombo, Bob is an object holder with a strong materic impact that embodies the pop art of the ‘60s.

The flexible material accentuates its organic value and sinuous shapes, turning it into an authentic mix-and-match design complement that can be freely positioned.

4/4

B-Line > Table

From the drawing board of Rodolfo Bonetto in 1969, 4/4 represents the typical multi-functional product that can easily adapt to setting and use, in this way allowing continually new interpretations of the spaces in which we live. Curving lines, glossy plastic and easy dovetailing turn the four elements making it up into a round coffee table, a serpentine table, a modular bookcase or even a corner shelving. Made in injection-moulded ABS plastic, 4/4 is a clever solution for the home, study or waiting rooms. For lovers of this kind of genre, it appears with Sean Connery in the 007 film “Diamonds are Forever”.

Fonda

B-Line > Table

A table with almost archetypal lines, born of a softened re-elaboration of its geometries. The soft round concrete base, coloured in the mass from the catalogue palette or even colour customised, houses the cylindrical metal structure supporting the top in the mdf or laminate versions. It is available in 2 heights, with a square shaped top and rounded corners, or a curving shape formed by the combination of arches evolving from circles of different diameters. Thanks to its essential shape, which makes it easy to combine with all chair types, the table is ideal for those contract contexts dedicated to the food and hotel sectors: the materials furthermore, make it suitable for both interiors and verandas, for open-air terraces and, more generally, for outdoor areas.

Tran Tran

B-Line > Table

Tran Tran is a wooden table designed to conjugate working, meeting, eating: actions that get repeated in everyday life, superimposing themselves in the new way of working, in perennial evolution, within spaces that are increasingly hybrid and informal. The rectangular top with rounded corners and edges rests on a pair of legs forming an “A”, consisting of two cylindrical uprights slightly “sliced off” along the inside: this type of section is designed to facilitate the cross bar’s fitting between the legs.

Boomerang

B-Line > Chair

Boomerang is a welcoming lounge chair featuring a flat pocket at the back for use as magazine holder and is characterised by soft and essential lines. Its apparent simplicity is misleading and is the result of the work of Rodolfo Bonetto, one of the masters of Italian design, who created a solid internal steel structure for it, with the unmistakably shaped lateral profiles that inspired its name. It has specifically designed screws that are machined on a lathe and then chrome-plated, while the folds in the upholstery fabric are done by hand. Boomerang combines high-quality materials with methods based on a craftsmen type production that remains strictly made in Italy. In its more social interpretation furthermore, by joining several elements together, it becomes a modular sofa.
