Specifications:
Inspiration: the precise, flawless, elegant movements of figure skating. Form: an oxymoron of materials and thicknesses. Flutz is the perfect fusion of a rigid, geometric structure and soft, inviting seating. In this, the second project by Michael Anastassiades for Cassina, the armrests of the chair are made up of two thin parallel aluminium sheets, connected by crosspieces upon which sits an invisible plate that serves to stabilize the base and to support the seat which, thus, appears to be suspended. Upholstered in removable leather or fabric, the chair ensures sturdy yet comfortable support, thanks to the shell wrapped in soft padding and encased in recycled PET batting. Based on the work carried out by Cassina LAB, with an eye to circularity, the various parts were designed to be disassembled and recycled at the end of the chair’s life cycle. This includes the upholstery, which can be separated from the encased padding thanks to an internal zipper, and the metal structure with matte finish, available in three dramatic colours: aluminium with powder-coat finish in anthracite or black, or natural anodised. Comfortable and elegant, Flutz pairs perfectly with the Ordinal table, also by the Cyprian designer, rounding out his line of dining products.

Specifications:
A collection of contemporary, sculptural dining tables, where the designer’s expertise in metalwork comes together with Cassina’s artisan skills and excellence in joinery. Its clean, minimalist design pairs a super-slim wood top with slender legs in wood or anodized or painted aluminum, placed on the diagonal at the ends of the table to allow more space for the diners. An extraordinary challenge for the company’s Research Center that rose to the occasion with an innovative solution that combines stability, strength and pared-down thicknesses. The line includes two square versions, one oval with lacquer or veneer top and two rectangular versions, one mono-finish in all-marble, or with the top in marble and the legs in aluminum, which adds to the sculptural beauty of the collection. The models with veneer top have an opulent solid wood perimeter.

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!

I ordered tiles from this company, and I must say, their delivery service wasexceptional. The tiles were delivered promptly and in perfect condition. The packaging was secure, ensuring that the tiles remained intact during transit.
