soft monolithic forms shape a modular furniture collection in nubuck, alpaca, and oak
soft monolithic forms define the design language of the limited-edition collection.
Interconnected Volumes Form Mouvement Flexible Seating series
ED Berrios Objet & Mobilier introduces two new editions within its Mouvement series: the Lounge Chair .008 and the Modular Sofa .006. Developed as complementary pieces, the designs investigate soft monolithic forms, asymmetrical balance, and the relationship between furniture, sculpture, and interior space. Produced as limited editions and handcrafted in Italy, both pieces emphasize materiality, proportion, and spatial presence.
Mouvement .008 is a lounge chair conceived as a soft monolithic volume. Upholstered in European mineral-tanned bovine nubuck over a solid oak frame, the chair is composed of a seat, backrest, and asymmetrical armrest that read as distinct yet interconnected masses. Its low profile and generous proportions position the object between functional seating and sculptural form, encouraging a relaxed mode of use while maintaining a strong architectural presence.
Mouvement .006 extends the same formal language to the scale of the living environment. Constructed with a solid oak internal frame and upholstered in pure alpaca wool, the modular sofa is composed of interconnected volumes that form a continuous seating landscape. The modules can be configured as a unified composition or arranged individually, allowing the system to adapt to different spatial layouts while preserving its monolithic character.
ED Berrios Extends Mouvement Collection with Two New Editions
Together, Mouvement .006 and .008, developed by ED Berrios Objet & Mobilier design practice, establish a consistent design language centered on mass, proportion, and material clarity. Ornament is reduced in favor of sculptural volume and carefully considered construction, while the restrained palette of nubuck, alpaca wool, and solid oak emphasizes texture, weight, and surface quality.
Both editions are handcrafted in a single Italian atelier that has collaborated with the studio since its founding. Each design is produced as a limited edition of 30 signed and numbered pieces, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
