A fully modular system, Bento was conceived of and designed to be sustainable from the ground up. Using just 2 skus (armless chair, set of 2 arms), a range of seating options, from an armchair to 4-seater sofa can be configured. Each component in the Bento collection features an FSC certified solid wood frame with GRS, 100% post-consumer recycled PET fiber fill, and recycled PET and polyester blend fabric upholstery. The Bento is a step towards a better and more responsible way to design and manufacture, without sacrificing style or comfort.
After 10 years designing and managing furniture around Asia, Matt Cole and Dan Given set up m.a.d. in 2010 to pursue their quest for useful and desirable moveables for the modern urban dweller. The result is an impressive and affordable collection of minimalist furniture that definitely hits the mark.
