Story
A settee with two faces
Ligne Roset's text for Taru centres on a fully upholstered base and a seat intertwined with a subtly curved backrest in two materials. The canalounge is one element of that range, offered as a left or a right piece.
The back as a place to mix
Ligne Roset names the rear section of the back as the part open to customisation, with fabrics, leathers and colours mixed as wished. It calls the model worth showing as much from the upholstered rear as from the front. The page also lists a back cushion and a footstool built on the same base.
