Positioning lounge furniture with serie 200 upholstery and black base bases
A black base provides a color reference, but the position of the furniture determines how that reference affects the room. View the proposed lounge area from nearby doors, work areas and circulation routes. Decide whether it should register as a distinct group or form part of a continuous seating arrangement. The amount of base visible will influence that impression. Where bases remain exposed, their outlines deserve attention alongside the upholstered shapes. Where they are less visible, the larger seating forms may have a stronger role in defining the group and its relationship with the space.
Choose where to repeat dark details
Identify the dark elements that are already important to the interior. The seating bases can relate to those elements without requiring every nearby object to share the same appearance. Choose a few meaningful connections, such as details seen together from the main approach. Then consider whether the surrounding background makes the bases distinct or visually subdued. Review an actual sample or the complete piece where possible. Black describes the selected appearance, but it does not specify the material, surface treatment or the way a particular surface will look under the room's lighting conditions.
