NEW DAILY PROJECTS Alf DaFrè
DAMA sideboard_design R&D Alf DaFrè
Refined and unconventional, the Dama sideboard takes its name from the three-dimensional chequered finish that characterises two of the four doors, adding to the composition a fine decorative effect played on the full/empty alternation. Special details are also the angular opening of the side doors and the upper groove created by the slight landing of the top with respect to the geometry of the cabinet. Details that tell the double soul of Alf DaFrè: the technical soul of a 4.0 company and the artisan soul linked to its history and the tradition of the territory. Shell in Natural or Classic Walnut. Top in Natural or Classic Walnut / Neolith Himalaya Crystal Ultrasoft ceramic. Base in Nickel or Moka shine. Two dimensions: cm 207.8 x 52.2 x h78.4 and cm 156 x 52.2 x h 78.4
ESSE table_design R&D Alf DaFrè

Continuing in the research, already undertaken with the Raku collection, towards a sofitted and domestic dimension of comfort. SOBI has consistent volumes and soft, organic shapes. Also in the armchair, the upholstered back embraces the compositional elements – the padded base and comfortable seat and back cushions – in a natural and harmonious way, inviting relaxation. Like the rest of the SOBI family, it can be upholstered with the entire range of fabrics, leathers and faux leathers in the catalogue. Dimensions: 87 x 85 x h 71 cm
POLS table _design Gordon Guillaumier
Rigorous and expressive, the POLS fixed table has a contemporary essentiality and a material and crafted dimension that looks to tradition. The composition is characterised by the particular ‘interlocking’ between the tubular legs and the horizontal elements of the structure that protrude slightly from the geometry of the table. The top is made of amber fused glass. Its textured and delicately shaded surface reveals the refined simplicity of the solid wood structure with a Biscotto Oak fashion wood finish. Two dimensions: cm 235 x 102 x h 73.2 – cm 180 x 102 x h 73.
STIKS chair_design Gordon Guillaumier
Conceived to affit the POLS table and inspired by the same constructive idea based on the juxtaposition of tubular elements and solid wood, the STIKS chair has a light and comfortable image thanks to the enveloping shape of the backrest that embraces the entire volume of the chair. Distinctive in its relationship between the different compositional elements, which seem delicately juxtaposed, STIKS features a solid wood frame with a Biscotto Oak fashion wood finish, and an upholstered seat and backrest. Dimensions: 57 x 52 x h 73.9 cm
RODS bookcase _design Gordon Guillaumier
RODS was created as a passe-partout system for the living area because of its simplicity and lightness. The design concept is based on the idea of a 37 deep upright element which, due to the section of the metal tubing and the type of connection between the elements, evokes a continuity of language with the POLS table and STIKS chair. Imagined in 3 dimensions to offer the freedom to compose linear bookcases or developed in different heights, the upright modules – end fibers, dividing shoulders, horizontal connection tubes – are made of Moka Shine painted metal. The shelves are available in fashion wood Rovere Biscotto or Amber shaded glass. Dimensions: right/left end side and dividing shoulders h cm 89.5 x d cm 37 – h cm 127.5 x d cm 37 – h cm 165.5 x d cm 37; central tube cm 75.5 / connecting tube cm 81.5 / right/left end tube cm 20
LAND sofa_design Enrico Cesana
LAND is a modular and sectional system of upholstered seating that lends itself to infinite configurations thanks to the multiplicity of upholstered elements, also conceived in two widths – maxi by 110 cm and mini by 85 cm – to offer maximum freedom of composition. The concept of LAND is based on the idea of a simple base that accommodates the seat/back cushions and comfortable additional support cushions. The special feature, in addition to the great flexibility, is the possibility of replacing the upholstered seat with a functional support surface that adds movement to the continuity of the composition. Dimensions: fixed sofa: cm 220 x 101 x h 93 – cm 270 x 101 x h 93; right/left end element: cm 110 x 101 x h 93 – cm 135 x 101 x h 93 – cm 170 x 101 x h 93 – cm 220 x 101 x h 93, centre element: cm 85 x 101 x h 93 – cm 110 x 101 x h 93 – cm 170 x 101 x h 93 – cm 220 x 101.4 x h 93, corner element cm 133 x 100 x h 93 – cm 220 x 100 x h 93, end chaise longue right/ds cm 110 x 158.2 x h 93 – cm 135 x 158.2 x h 93, pouf cm 85 x 101 x h 35 – cm 110 x 101 x h 35
ADAMO extending table_design Bruna Vaccher
Functional, light and contemporary, ADAMO is distinctive for its balanced proportions and the rounded lines that define all the compositional elements. The tapered legs fit into the undercounter frame with its curved profile. The slim top is characterised by rounded corners with a balanced and classically harmonious effect. ADAMO is perfect in combination with the Tina chair. The structure is made of fashion wood. The top is offered in fashion wood / Neolith Himalaya Crystal ultrasoft ceramic / resin.

DEFILÉ bed group_design R&D Alf DaFrè
DEFILÉ was born from the idea of creating an equipped bed that does not need any other accessories. The Groove boiserie behind the actual bed is in fact a wall that can be equipped with shelves and drawers. Two side wings in matt lacquered Moka shine underline the idea of an independent and functional bed area.
SUITE SYSTEM_design Enrico Cesana
Not just a bed but a true modular system that gives a wide choice of configurations and combinations of finishes. Five platforms are available to match the upholstered panels and boiseries equipped with practical metal shelves. There is a wide choice of sizes, also with storage units. Today the system is enriched with new details and accessories. The upholstered headboard is available in a normal or bold version, more soffied and full-bodied. Shelves and book pockets add new elements of comfort to the system.

A super new feature is the iconic MIXER system that has evolved over the years by integrating more and more specific functions.

In 2023, the system will also accommodate the washbasin – with storage units and accessories – following the growing trend to include some bathroom elements in the bedroom.The composition presented at the Salone represents an absolute preview of the new project: the centre of the composition – closed by transparent Display doors – houses a Frappuccino ceramic washbasin and a large mirror. A small revolution in the idea of a suite interpreted by the mere presence of a multifunctional wardrobe system.
POKER system_new interior organisation and new corner opening
Of the various Alf DaFrè wardrobe systems, all distinguished by great versatility, Poker represents the most complete and multifaceted evolution thanks to the functions it contains. Over the years the system has grown thanks to the addition of special modules designed precisely for new functions complementary to “containing”.
