Made to Measure collection by Herzog & de Meuron for UniFor
Dezeen Showroom: Italian furniture brand UniFor has launched a range of furnishings with angled wooden legs designed by architecture studio Herzog & de Meuron.
Made to Measure comprises tables, including one for table tennis, as well as a bench, a daybed and sofas, united by wooden frames with legs positioned at a 12-degree angle.
According to UniFor, the range is suited to a range of environments, reflecting Herzog & de Meuron's "approach to creating scalable, configurable furnishings in relation to the architectural context", rather than designing one-off pieces.
"The strength of Made to Measure lies in its versatility," said Herzog & de Meuron's senior partner Ascan Mergenthaler.
"It is not conceived for a single context, but to be, as the name suggests, truly 'made to measure' in its use, dimensions and material quality," he continued.
"From the large communal table to more compact configurations, through to the table tennis version, the constructive principle remains unchanged. It is a system designed to adapt and to encourage interaction."
Made to Measure is primarily intended for use in corporate settings, though UniFor said it can be adapted to suit "different environments and evolve over time".
All upholstered elements in the collection are covered in cork fabric. Tables are available in natural oak to match the legs, with polished steel tops or with inserts in coloured glass, travertine and red marble.
