ELYSEE
ELYSEE
The Elysée collection of settee, armchair, and footstool was reconstructed by Ligne Roset using plans in the archives of Pierre Paulin. If the aesthetics and the volumes of the original have been scrupulously respected, the comfort of the seats has been significantly improved through the use of the new materials now available and the highly specialised expertise of Ligne Roset in the field of multi-density foams and their assembly.
The compactness, graphic purity, and visual lightness of the Elysée seating enable them to fit perfectly into small spaces such as city apartments.
CONSTRUCTION
Seat in panels of OSB and multi-ply, cut and clad in polyether foam and 100g/m² polyester quilting. Back in panels of OSB and mechanically-soldered steel clad in polyether foam and 100g/m² polyester quilting. Base in matt black lacquered machined MDF.
COMFORT
Seat with core in two densities of high resilience polyurethane Bultex foam (38 kg/m3 - 3.6 kPa and 32 kg/m3 - 2.5 kPa) with comfort layer in Bultex foam (38 kg/m3 - 2.3 kPa) clad in 100 g/m² polyester quilting. Suspension of back via elastic webbing and Bultex foam (26 kg/m3 - 1.4 kPa) clad in 100 g/m² polyester quilting.
MAKING-UP
Lines of the seat and back highlighted by twin-needle stitching.
Covers are held in place by gripper strips and are removable.
FABRICS
A monocolour model which may be upholstered in fabric or leather. If the original pieces in the Elysée Palace were upholstered in oatmeal-coloured fabric, coloured wools will also bring a touch of brightness and gaiety.
