Description

Named after the city of trees, Sendai is a refined family of seats including a small sofa, armchairs, lounge and dining little armchairs. Its elegant legs in Light Brown-stained Canaletto walnut or Licorice-lacquered ash lift the enveloping upholstered body, creating a distinctive rhythm of vertical lines. Selected models are also available in a 360° swivel version with return mechanism, making Sendai particularly comfortable for residential and Hospitality environments. The collection creates a new, more intimate way of experiencing the living space, transforming the dining area into a “living room within the living room”. In 2023, Sendai expanded with a new enveloping sofa, a swivel armchair with armrests and a footstool. The armchair features a higher backrest and comfortable armrests, providing an enhanced sense of relaxation, especially when paired with the footstool.

Designer

Inoda+Sveje

Minotti and Inoda+Sveje met for the first time in 2021: the collaboration with the designer duo made up of Kyoko Inoda (Japan) and Nils Sveje (Denmark), that represents for Minotti an unprecedented choice, is rooted in the ineffable bond between the Orient and Scandinavia but, above all, in the brands inexhaustible pursuit of beauty and excellent workmanship. Inoda+Sveje design is characterised by a harmonious approach and incredible attention to shapes and proportions: the duo takes inspiration from the world of nature, which is expressed in the sophisticated details of its projects, in the soft lines and precious joints of cabinet making.

 

The projects designed by Inoda+Sveje for the 2022 Collection embody the traditional aesthetics and art of wood-sanding, typical of their respective countries of origin, and Minotti’s decades of upholstered furniture expertise.
