The Neil seating collection, designed by Jean Marie Massaud, is a continuously evolving project known for its simplicity, versatility, and meticulous design. The steel wire structure creates a lightweight, minimalist silhouette, while the coverings in leather, rope, or fabric, combined with a wide range of colours, add personality to the seat, allowing it to adapt to various settings - indoor and outdoor, residential and contract.
Design and craftsmanship come together in a collection able to meet diverse living needs: Neil Leather, elegant and refined, fits perfectly into sophisticated and contemporary spaces, Neil Textile offers a more informal solution, enriched by a broad range of fabrics that enhance its versatility, while Neil Twist is the ideal option for outdoor use. The Neil collection, which includes chairs and stools, embraces a sustainable philosophy: crafted from high-quality materials and optimised production processes, the pieces minimise waste, ensure longevity, and at the end of their lifecycle, can be easily disassembled and recycled.
