Products

The company's basic product range consists of pieces for use in public areas, homes and offices. Apart from the company's own designs, it also manufactures and distributes the works of young designers and established architects, and custom made items.

In 1999, Primary Pouf 01, a block of brightly colored polyurethane foam on legs,[3] kicked off the use of QM Foam, a proprietary material originally developed and produced by the company. QM Foam refers to the result of a chemical reaction between the polyurethane foam shape and different layers, with different compositions, spray painted on to it (foam coating).[4] The label nowadays features as well various collections in wood, fabrics, steel, PE and concrete.
