B—Line is a company specialised in designer furnishings which, ever since its beginnings, has manufactured contemporary products along with evergreen icons from the past, such as Joe Colombo’s famous Boby storage trolley. Solid, transversal and flexible designs, the result of collaborations with international designers and of an exclusively Italian production.
B—Line is a company, brainchild of its founder, Giorgio Bordin, that restores life to several historical icons of design on the Italian scenario. These are works that have disappeared over the years, made obsolete by the unrelenting ferment of a market that is brimming with innovation. Of the products re-edited, some have made history “contaminating” many facets of art and design, such as Joe Colombo’s famous Boby.
From the very beginning, side by side with its re-editions, B—Line places contemporary furnishing accessories, resulting from collaborations with international designers. Tangible, factual and transversal projects that have the responsibility and honour to co-exist with the great cornerstones of design and to encourage, in terms of style and character, a smooth switch from home environments to working spaces and from outdoors to indoors, areas that are increasingly hybrid and mercurial, as demanded by contemporary lifestyles.
Merano

A light and elegant collection, suitable for indoor and outdoor use, both in public and private areas. Consisting of a lounge chair and two-seater sofa, characterised by a slim steel frame that accommodates comfortable cushions.
In the lounge chair version, the lower base alone, together with the cushion attached to it, becomes a comfy pouf that can also be occasionally used or as a seat or as footrest to complete this relaxing arrangement; whereas the small sofa becomes a comfortable and functional bench, by just keeping the lower frame with the cushion. Once the frame is separated from the cushions (removable with a simple gesture), the structure can be divided into two parts, decreasing its volume and significantly reducing packaging: this design solution makes the collection easy to transport and stack. Galvanised, painted steel rod structure.
