e-ggs applies soft, inviting curves to ‘botera’ modular seating collection

‘botera’ is a family of modular seating designed by e-ggs with one word in mind — comfort. created for italian manufacturer miniforms, the collection features a curvy silhouette and a soft, cushiony seat that makes you want to sit down and never get back up.

botera begins with a squishy seat module, padded with four different types of foam, that’s available in various lengths to form a sofa, a pouf, or an armchair. you can then choose between a low or high backrest and a huge range of textile finishes. in this way, botera is truly flexible as users can tailor a personal seating solution to suit the style and dimensions of their own home: from palatial living rooms to cozy nooks. modules can also be put together to create unique arrangements for commercial settings, offering a soft, welcoming touch to offices or reception spaces. 

botera is all about comfort, anytime, anywhere

whether occupying home interiors or office spaces, the design aims to bring people together while optimizing both comfort and flexibility. ‘botera is a round figure whose comfortable volumes give it an outstanding look, like a soft cloud. we wanted to transmit this feeling through the plastic expansion and dilation of forms’,  says e-ggs.
