Gervasoni – Hashi 05 modular sofa

Literally "chopsticks" in Japanese, the Hashi modular sofa has a system with a minimal and rigid structure that recalls the oriental instrument from which it takes its name. The different sofa modules are made comfortable thanks to the seat cushions in variable density polyurethane foam and polyester fibers, covered with outdoor polyester cloth and breathable non-slip bottom with the structure of the base and the frames of the steel back treated for the outside.
The peculiarity of Hashi lies in the use of the technical fabric Jaquard Outdoor Accardi that wraps and wraps below and above the iroko wood elements. Sustainable fabric, lightweight and waterproof and carefully worked by artisans weavers, the fabric Outdoor Accardi creates a textured design that blends harmoniously with the wooden structure with irregular section, highlighting once again the reference to Japanese and local artisanal tradition.
