DOWNTOWN

Proficient, elegant, timeless… DownTown is the armchair (ideal for working) specially dedicated to demanding decision-makers whose their choice depends on comfort and a refined elegance. A technical seat that look like a silhouette; handcrafted by Poltrona Frau assuring the highest quality. More than a sculpture, DownTown is a sensual and characteristic creation by Jean-Marie Massaud. Downtown is available in 5 versions: President, Executive, Managerial, Meeting and Visitor. The upholstery, embellished with tone-on-tone or contrast stitching, is made with Pelle Frau® leather from the Color System, and is also available in a version with micro-perforations on the inner surface of the backrest, armrests and cushion. In the President, Executive, Managerial and Meeting versions, the five-spoke resting base, available in either polished aluminium or with a black finish, is fitted with soft, self-blocking “W” type wheels that adapt to all types of flooring. The Visitor version has a 4-spoke base with swivel plastic glides that are, on request, also available for the other versions. The President, Executive and Managerial versions are height adjustable and rotate by pulling the lever beneath the seat on the right. The “Syncron” turning mechanism for the seat and backrest allows the armchair to easily accompany the body’s movements, thereby guaranteeing extraordinary comfort. The armchair’s mechanism allows it to be locked into 4 different positions. A thrust-bearing mechanism allows Downtown Meeting to rotate around its axis. Downtown Visitor is fitted with an automatic return rotation mechanism provided by a resistant bearing, which allows the armchair to rotate and return to its original position.
