Rolf Benz has created a new dining room collection in collaboration with designer Norbert Beck, to introduce a unique new furniture concept.

The collection features an extensive range of chairs and two contemporary tables:

The Rolf Benz 620 chair is available as a dining chair, barstool or a bench. This lightweight chair has a tubular chromed steel sprung frame and the cantilevered construction allows the upholstered seat and back to flex gently with movement; the chair is also available with a modern circular swivel base in chrome matt or silver painted finish. The moulded wood armrests come in a walnut or oak veneer to match the wood finishes available on the table.

The 8840 dining table illustrated, is designed to complement the 620 seating and features an understated aluminum edge and seamless fixed top without pull-out leaves; the table top comes in oak or walnut veneer, or a choice of coloured glass; different materials can be chosen for the inlay on the legs and table surface, e.g. - leather, oak or walnut to complement the materials on the chairs.
The table is obtainable in four lengths (160/190/220/240cm) and in two widths (98/108cm).

The 8850 table is available in two versions with a pull-out leaf or a fixed top; a shadow gap makes the table top appear to hover above the solid walnut or oak legs.
This table is available in three lengths (160/190/220cm) and one width (98cm)

The table is the centre of many activities in the home including work, study, playing games and generally spending time with others.

The novel Actulum chair from Varier is designed to enable you to move freely whilst sitting and at the same time it stimulates dynamic and active sitting, which in turn promotes a feeling of well-being.

The backrest has a flexible joint to increase comfort when leaning backwards.
 
Active sitting is encouraged as the chair responds to the body’s movements, providing support for arms and elbows while following your body from leaning backwards to forwards; it also has wooden runners, which cause you to balance while sitting and can provide support for the feet.

Seat and back cushions are detachable, washable and easily changed.

The wood used by Varier is cultivated and generally beech. Products may come untreated but are usually varnished, wood stained or oiled; a seven-year warranty is offered on all wooden components.
 
Varier offer a selection of high quality fabrics, which consist of natural materials such as wool, cotton and quality leather in a variety of colours.

Retail prices start from £389.00.
