Bentley Home presents a new furniture collection at this year’s Salone Internazionale del Mobile, reflecting an evolution of its formal style and designs. Unique creations are distinguished by the finest craftsmanship and their modern, subtle overtones.
Made in Italy, the harmonious play of contrasts and styles displayed by the range follows a fil rouge of elegance, suggesting luxurious, enveloping atmospheres.
The Collection, designed by the architect Carlo Colombo, focuses on the study of proportions and forms, outlining well-balanced concepts featuring classical volumes full of refined details. Decorative elements become functional as in the Stowe sofa which stands out for its useful and distinctive open compartment that enhances the design.
The relaxing and innovative attitude typical of the Bentley world of interiors is also reflected in the choice of materials. The new maple and eucalyptus woods that add allure to the structures and surfaces are interpreted in variations with the refined fiddleback motif, at times in contrast with the leather covers.
Fabrics take their cue from the world of haute couture, in a tribute to the inimitable automotive tradition. Soft cotton and silk velvets and high-performance chenilles reinterpret chromatic patterns, applying a palette that ranges through delicate and pastel nuances.
Tones of ecru and quartz grey are juxtaposed with highlighted burgundy and cognac shades, creating a Collection of unique individuality.
The eight-piece collection include: Stowe sofa £ 9,090 ($21,170); Stamford four seat sofa £12,510 ($29,140); Stamford chaise longue £ 7,460 ($17,380); Sherwood table £12,370 ($28,820); Sherwood chairs £4,090 ($ 9,520); Stamford bed £5,910 ($13,370); Eastgate cabinet £19,340 ($45,040) and Morpeth table lamp £3,220 ($7,490).
