Maxalto Caratos Fauteuil

Maxalto Caratos Armchair

The Caratos armchair is part of B&B Italia's Maxalto collection and reflects a refined approach to contemporary seating, combining classic proportions with modern technology. Within B&B Italia, Maxalto positions itself as a label that emphasizes timeless elegance, high-quality materials, and carefully crafted details.

Design and character

The Caratos armchair is characterized by a balanced design language: a compact yet generous seat, supported by a slender and precisely crafted base. The lines are clear and understated, allowing the armchair to fit effortlessly into both residential interiors and more formal settings. The design is deliberately understated, with a focus on proportion and comfort over expressive form.

Construction and materials

The armchair is built around a solid supporting structure that combines stability with a visually light appearance. The seat and backrest are generously padded and covered with high-quality fabrics, selected for their durability, tactility, and colorfastness. The metal base creates a subtle contrast with the soft upholstery and contributes to the graphic clarity of the design.

Comfort and use

The Caratos armchair offers a comfortable, supportive seating position suitable for extended use. The gently sloping back and carefully adjusted seat height encourage a relaxed posture without sacrificing elegance. This makes the armchair suitable as a standalone lounge chair, but also as part of a larger seating area or reading room.

Place within the collection

Within the Maxalto collection, Caratos represents an approach where discretion and luxury go hand in hand. The design complements other Maxalto seating and easily combines with sofas, tables, and accessories from the same design family.
