A die-cast aluminium support frame stands on feet 19 cm high. Back, armrest and seat frames of steel, with a wood panel in the seat, carry foam and down cushions under a fabric or leather cover.

Story
Essential by subtraction
B&B Italia presents Michel Effe as an evolution of Michel in which everything superfluous has been removed; the page ties this essential style to a rigorous base frame and a seat with a single cushion.

In two depths
The system comes in two depths, and the page says its elements allow in-line and modular compositions that run from formal to casual.
