Wink Armchair by Toshiyuki Kita for CassinaErgonomically correct and exquisitely versatile, Cassina’s Wink armchair cleverly unfolds into a chaise-longue. “Sitting on Wink means sitting on the floor and, when you are seated there, according to oriental tradition, your spirit rises,” explains designer Toshiyuki Kita. Its proportions of-the- moment, Wink has a multi-functional mission with a pop look, and can be personalised in either leather, or in an ample array of fabrics and colours, with more added regularly. The back, and head-rest can be adjusted by means of the handles on the side, these being available in a range of shades to match the front and back legs.INSPIRATION SPEAKS ERGONOMICSWink rises out of the complex interweaving of Western ways and Asian influences, a versatile, eclectic design armchair that, by folding its base, becomes a chaise longue.By virtue of its contoured cushions and soft padding, the high back armchair conforms to the shape of the body. Tongue-in-cheek and agile, it can easily be shifted from a seated to a lying position. Wink by Cassina allows the position of the backrest, including the headrest with reclinable sections, to be adjusted using two side handles, available in sets of different colors to match the front and rear feet.PADDINGPolyurethane foam and polyester batting.STRUCTUREStructure in tubular steel with base that folds forward.Important information regarding images of products:Please note that some of the images show other colors and variations of the model, these images are only to present interior design proposals.
