Noonu is an atoll, a corner of pure relaxation amidst the colours of the Maldives. Noonu is also the name of the new sofa system that Antonio Citterio has designed for B&B Italia: a brand-new project created to continue and complete the journey started in 2018 with B&B Atoll. The Noonu collection works in harmony with B&B Italia’s previous collections to form a fully-fledged archipelago of options, where the unique character that distinguishes each individual element does its part in telling a cohesive story. “The theme of islands started back in the mid-‘80s,” says architect Antonio Citterio, “when we invented a selection of new types with the Sity line. We started referring to sofas with ‘peninsulas’ and ‘islands’, but that sort of terminology was, at the time, somewhat unusual. Nowadays, they’re part of our everyday vocabulary”. Today, that pioneering intuition has been transformed into an organic vision in which Noonu is offering itself as a port, a starting point from which to cast off and explore new territory. Noonu is a system of upholstery in which large sizes meet impressive flexibility. The supporting structure disappears from view, creating “islands” which appear to almost float, suspended in mid-air. The seats themselves are deep, with a single, large seat cushion that guarantees extreme comfort, inviting and relaxing whilst also characterising the overall aesthetic. The tilted back is designed to accommodate cushions, which can be distributed however you wish. The design is made even more intriguing by a support element that can be arranged in any manner of positions: a roller cushion bound by sophisticated webbing to a die-cast aluminium frame, which sits beneath the seat cushion. This allows you to use it freely as a terminal armrest element or as a headrest, to read or to work, placed between the seats or removed entirely, depending on how the sofa is being used. As Antonio Citterio tells us, the story of Noonu is rooted in a journey that started a few years ago: “Atoll and Noonu stemmed from a single idea, namely a cylinder that could be used as an armrest and cushions distributed freely over the sofa. What’s new in Noonu is the apparently suspended seating, which extends all the way to the floor, and the new types of elements that we have defined as “piano” and “sail” elements, lending a certain identity and richness to the design”. Noonu is comprised of four basic elements, namely a square and a rectangle, in addition to the brand-new “piano” and “sail” elements. The piano-shaped base creates a welcoming curve in the backrest, whilst the sail provides a generous, rounded volume at the front. Antonio Citterio has designed them to be “natural chaises longues”, bold evolutions of the peninsula module, new organic forms conceived with total relaxation in mind, just like the special pockets of nature that Noonu is named after. Each component in the Noonu collection has, at its base, a metal profile made from curved, pre-shaped aluminium, a strip that runs along the entire perimeter of the frame, defining it, which comes in a selection of different finishes. The same finishes are also available for the supports for the roller elements. Noonu is set to be introduced in a new fabric with 12 colour variants: solid colours and mélanges of neutral hues, but also sophisticated shades of blue, green, red and orange. These are bold yet extremely homely tones, designed especially to suit combinations between the various elements of each individual composition (frame, cushions, rollers), thus allowing for a custom solution of an unrivalled elegance. In addition to this fabric, Noonu will also be available in leather. According to Antonio Citterio, “Noonu is a fully-fledged domestic island”. And this island will draw on the straight and curved lines of its four basic components to establish a dialogue with the walls, but also to take centre stage in the room and create spectacular and dynamic islands. The elements of Noonu can also stand on their own as individual objects, be combined to create personalised compositions, or be selected to form a dialectical relationship with other elements from B&B Italia’s collections, such as B&B Atoll seats and ottomans, Mirto accessories, and Diesis and Pianura tables. “From Atoll to Noonu,” concludes Antonio Citterio, “what we have is a path that has developed over several years and that now, finally, we can present as a single project, a fully-fledged archipelago”.

Classic yet contemporary, with its apparent formal simplicity, the Harry sofa comes in three sizes, and is available as a two-seater and three-seater. Its principal feature, which is comfort, issues from relations between the inclination of the back and seat, while its unmistakable distinctive trait lies in its aluminium feet. A small detail that endows a rather traditional product with a genuine touch of modernity and lightness, making it a truly timeless sofa. Harry is named after Harry Bertoia, one of the great masters of design.

An icon of contemporary design, the Charles sofa stands out for its light image accentuated by the essential design of the die-cast aluminium feet in the shape of an inverted “L” which, together with the design of the armrest, the single seat cushion and the free back cushions, is the distinctive element of the line. The airy shape and simple profile make it, almost by contrast, extremely rich and innovative from a spatial standpoint: a system that encourages the creation of ever new compositions, from an in-line two- or three-seater sofa, to a sofa with chaise longue, to a corner sofa. Charles reveals a great formal elegance that goes well beyond the current times and fashions. A broad selection of elements satisfies any furnishing need, including the most personal desire for comfort. The cover is available either in fabric or in leather.

Named after the coral formation, the modular sofa system B&B Atoll is a refined expression of a balanced aesthetic form and a decisive contemporary style that is also extremely elegant. The system is built on three basic platforms that are complemented by armrest and backrest elements to form various types of seats: sofas, dormeuses, corner-end modules, single or modular elements with chaise longue and ottomans. The frames have light, slender lines and are applied on high die-cast supports with metal profile emphasising the line between the structure and upholstery. The pieces are given even more character by a supporting element to be placed wherever desired, a bolster in two sizes attached by leather straps to a die-cast structure. This accessory can be inserted between the seat cushion and the base structure to provide an additional support or become an armrest or backrest at will. B&B Atoll is a dynamic project with a constantly fresh ability to adapt to different compositions and create different seating types, from informal relax versions to most formal, also made possible by the use of complementary back cushions.

The Richard seating system stands out for its balanced and contemporary design, evocative of classic atmospheres. Its modularity is reflected by the presence of several elements, all in two depths: one for more formal and contained solutions, and the other for larger, more informal compositions.

The wide range of covers, in fabric with matching tone-on-tone or contrasting textile profiles, or in leather with profiles in the same material, allows for even greater customisation, offering monochromatic or contrasting solutions. The frame is underscored at the base by a metal profile. Optional cushions in various sizes add to the overall comfort.

I came across to LineaSelect by mistake and one day I sent them an email to see if they can help me with Devon&Devon bathroom items.
The staff was friendly and our communication easy, with both Aiste and Jaunius, very professional.
Today I received the items and I must say I am impressed. They are exactly as described on the website.
I will return for more items in future for sure and I do recommend this website if you wish to get high quality items for your project. ! 👍

I have exclusively worked with Lineaselect for my house renovation project. I have bought ceramic tiles and other bathroom fittings from them at a very good price. As with any house renovation project, the choice of good material makes all the difference. I started communicating with Jaunius with a simple price offer which evolved into more like continuous communication on range of different products.
He was always very responsive and precise with the information and his brand knowledge is impressive. From the selection to delivery, the whole process was super smooth and transparent. I was a bit unsure about damages during the shipping, however, my order arrived without a single damaged item. Asite from Lineaselect handled the ordering and delivery process very professionally and she was always quick with updating me about the order and delivery status.
They are my go to people for any future home improvement projects and I highly recommend them!
