B&B Italia presents the redesigned Tufty-Time 20, a revamped version of their iconic modular lounge furniture.
B&B Italia Unveils Updated Tufty-Time 20 Sofa
B&B Italia has revealed the Tufty-Time 20, a contemporary evolution of their iconic modular sofa designed by Patricia Urquiola. This latest iteration preserves the original design's modularity and sinking, enveloping comfort, while incorporating several updates that reflect a modern approach focused on comfort, design evolution, and sustainability.
The Tufty-Time 20 comes in a new fabric: chenille with a bouclé effect, offering a tactile experience that complements its softer curves and thicker cushions. The redesigned volumes, padding, and seat height provide further improvements to seating comfort, making the sofa a delight for those seeking a relaxed and informal seating arrangement.
The addition of a curved module to the system enhances its potential for rounded layouts, particularly suitable for hotels and offices. This new module expands the modular system’s flexibility, allowing for more versatile configurations.
In line with B&B Italia's evolution towards a focus on responsible environmental behavior in its business model, the Tufty-Time 20 emphasises sustainability and circular design. A thick Dacron layer between polyurethane and fabric makes the new model even softer and more cushioned, while ensuring all components and materials can be reused or recycled at the end of its life.
The original Tufty-Time, launched in collaboration with B&B Italia and Patricia Urquiola, was an immediate commercial success. The 20th anniversary version softens the silhouette and prioritizes sensory comfort while maintaining the modular essence that defines the collection. The Tufty-Time 20 continues to respect the integrity of the original design, but it also marks a clear evolution from the original, introducing more organic shapes, enhanced cushioning, improved ergonomics, added modular elements, and an emphasis on sustainable design principles.
The Tufty-Time 20 is still part of B&B Italia's catalogue, stepping into the future while remaining true to the original's innovative spirit. To accompany the new model, B&B Italia has also released a new coffee table series designed to fit neatly between the sofa's modules. The Tufty-Time 20 redefines concepts of comfort and modularity, merging traditional styles with a modern lifestyle, and offers a perfect blend of design, comfort, and sustainability.
The Tufty-Time 20, with its updated design, reflects a modern approach not only in fashion-and-beauty but also in home-and-garden, as it serves as a foundation for a comfortable and stylish living space. The new fabric choice and improved seating comfort contribute to a relaxed and informal lifestyle that aligns with the current trends.
