Downtown is an armchair specially dedicated to demanding decision-makers whose choice depends on comfort and a refined elegance. The model was first released in 2014 by leading Italian high-end furniture manufacturer Poltrona Frau. The design of the Downtown chair was created by top French designer Jean-Marie Massaud.
Downtown is available in 5 versions: President, Executive, Managerial, Meeting and Visitor. The upholstery is made with Pelle Frau leather, and is also available in a version with micro-perforations on the inner surface of the backrest, armrests and cushion. In the President, Executive, Managerial and Meeting versions, the five-spoke resting base, available in either polished aluminium or with a black finish, is fitted with soft, self-blocking «W» type wheels that adapt to all types of flooring.
The President, Executive and Managerial versions are height adjustable and rotate by pulling the lever beneath the seat on the right. The «Syncron» turning mechanism for the seat and backrest allows the armchair to easily accompany the body’s movements, thereby guaranteeing extraordinary comfort. The armchair’s mechanism allows it to be locked into 4 different positions. The model is presented in a wide range of finishing colors.
