Modular geometry

The Ralik modular seating system designed by Ichiro Iwasaki for Arper consists of chairs, ottomans and benches with rounded, reassuring shapes that can be used as single units or combined to create infinite solutions of different sizes and shapes, able to respond to a wide range of project requirements. Distinctive feature of the Ralik line are the ‘L’-shaped legs made of recycled polypropylene that not only facilitate cleaning but also give the modules a sculptural effect. Equipped with charging sockets, the elements in the range are designed for public or work spaces, but can also be adapted for domestic use. Different types of side tables complete the Ralik family, creating practical supporting surfaces. The line also includes soft cushions that can be combined with the benches to provide comfort in larger configurations.
