Airwave finalist of the Architizer A + Products Awards

The Airwave collection in a waiting room

The “AirWave” seating system receives further recognition and is positioned as a finalist in the Contract Seating category in the prestigious Architizer A + Product Awards. At the same time, our range of modular seating is decreed as one of the best products of 2021.

The Architizer A + Product Awards is the largest awards program focused on promoting and celebrating the best architecture of the year. Its mission is to cultivate the appreciation of design around the world. Architizer also sustain its positive impact on daily life and reaching a global audience of over 400 million people.

 

This is how Charles Godbout describes the collection he signed:

“The illustrious jury of the Architizer is made up of professional architects and designers from the most renowned international companies, who appreciated the originality of Airwave. AirWave is able to connect in curves. Short wave, medium wave and long wave – and form a cohesive whole that goes beyond the simple private sofa with a high back.”

 

AirWave main features

AirWave’s design embraces the balance between style, comfort and versatility. It can be configured for use in all contract environments including airport waiting areas and lounges (such as hotel lobbies, corporate offices and institutional environments such as universities and libraries). The seating range starts with simple ottomans and benches that can be arranged in a linear or curved series. Followed by endless possibilities of single and double seats. The backs and sides of the high and low models combine to create various patterns of sinusoidal curves. In order to optimize the floor space, creating either communal or private environments. One of the special features that makes AirWave truly unique is the ability to calibrate the intensity level of privacy by configuring the curve arrangements in a “short wave”, “medium wave” and “long wave” pattern.

The latter creates deeper niches for maximum privacy.Extension straight panels also allow for various small salon configurations. The option to include wireless mobile charging, USB-A, USB-C and UKF sockets brings this solution to the forefront of power enabled seating.

All the team of Altek Italia Design is pleased and honored to receive this worldwide recognition. Check out the other awards from the AirWave collection here.
