In the world of music, the term ADAGIO dictates that a piece should be played at a slow and leisurely pace. And it is this sense of serenity that inspired the designers at NOTE to create a series of benches and poufs that exude a relaxed appearance and sense of fluidity. Quality handcraftsmanship, too, calls for calm and deliberation. Otherwise it simply would not be possible to bring ADAGIO's design details to life with such unerring precision.

Seemingly lapping gently over the body in one continuous line, the character of this compact bench is defined by its graphic curves. The defining wavelike pattern is quilted into the fabric of the upholstery through a soft layer of foam – creating the gentle camber that lends the benches a distinctly sculptural aesthetic. The pattern repeats without interruption over the entire upholstered surface without dividing seams. Available in two different lengths, the straight variant is equally at home positioned at the foot of a bed, or when used as seating in foyers or closet spaces. Not only highly attractive, the large-format curved version also establishes a locus of communication, making it wonderfully suited as a place for dialogue. All elements can be combined at will and joined together by means of element connectors. Especially in contract settings, this gives rise to highly compelling arrangements, from round seating islands to room-length benches.

Depending on the choice of fabric, the benches look sporty or elegant, flamboyant or understated – enriching any room with their uncomplicated yet unconventional aesthetic. They offer a high level of comfort, which Wittmann adeptly brings to even the simplest form with a characteristically sure hand. Combined with a carefully composed cold foam structure, it ensures matchless seating quality.
