Story
An embrace in soft volumes
Kartell introduces the K-Waiting upholstered collection with the phrase "the comfort of an embrace". Dordoni sets rigorous, formally simple volumes against soft, rounded lines, and the page says the division between home and contract solutions is increasingly blurred in this collection too, with versatility as its keyword.
