Notes:
The elements, combined with the pouf, can be used to create articulated compositions with different angle amplitude and easily modifiable.

The not-shaped seating element code B236E can be completed with backrest, armrests and/or side tables as to create a three-seater sofa or a large chaise longue.

The tops in marine multilayer veneered with Aurea Optima heat-treated ash wood are treated to be oil and water repellent with a water-based finish that limits the absorption of liquids and greasy substances. Like any kind of wood, ash also changes in colour, compactness and structure over time, without this affecting its quality: oxidation and cracking of the surface are completely normal phenomena linked to the nature of the material.

This product can be used also in interior environments.

We advise to use a Winter Set protection cover.

Awards: Santorini seating system has been awarded with the STYLEPARK SELECTED AWARD 2024 as one of the best products of the year, the ARCHIPRODUCT DESIGN AWARDS 2024 and the RED DOT AWARD 2025 in the Product Design category.

 

The colours of fabrics and materials in the photo-galleries are to be considered an indication only and can never replace the use of real samples when ordering.

Characteristics
As shown in the photos below, Aurea Optima surfaces tend to change colour rapidly during the first weeks of exposure to UV rays (from A to B), after which they stabilize and remain almost unchanged (C). Once stabilized, regular maintenance is essential to preserve the aesthetic qualities of the product as much as possible. It is therefore recommended to periodically apply — according to conditions of use — the product contained in the specific treatment kit supplied. In addition to the purely aesthetic benefit, this treatment also prevents the wood from drying excessively which, as naturally occurs, may lead to cracks or swelling. Such phenomena cannot be considered production defects. If you wish to restore the original colour of the wood (A), please contact the Company. After a careful case-by-case assessment, the piece may undergo a sanding and industrial varnishing process. To extend the lifespan of Aurea Optima tops, it is also advisable to avoid leaving objects in prolonged contact with the surfaces, as this may cause uneven maturation of the wood — a condition that is difficult to recover.
