By virtue of its contoured cushions and soft padding, the high back armchair conforms to the shape of the body. Tongue-in-cheek and agile, it can easily be shifted from a seated to a lying position. Wink by Cassina allows the position of the backrest, including the headrest with reclinable sections, to be adjusted using two side handles, available in sets of different colors to match the front and rear feet. PADDING Polyurethane foam and polyester batting. STRUCTURE Structure in tubular steel with base that folds forward. Ergonomically correct and exquisitely versatile, Cassina’s Wink armchair cleverly unfolds into a chaise-longue. “Sitting on Wink means sitting on the floor and, when you are seated there, according to oriental tradition, your spirit rises,” explains designer Toshiyuki Kita. Its proportions of-the- moment, Wink has a multi-functional mission with a pop look, and can be personalised in either leather, or in an ample array of fabrics and colours, with more added regularly.
