  • "For some companies innovation doesn't depend on the ups and downs of the business cycle: it's driven instead by a determination to create and the capacity to do so". This principle articulated by our chairman José Figueras has guided Figueras International Seating, a company based on innovation and design, since the firm was first established. Figueras is committed to constantly creating new products, finishes and materials, and, above all, to coming up with novel concepts that set new trends in furniture design and benefit society.
    
    The Figueras Design Centre is where we make the ideas and designs architects conceive for their projects a reality. This universe of creativity that Figueras and Swarovski have combined their efforts to create unique products like Flame Crystal. Amazing seating that makes the difference.
    
    The team of engineers and technical specialists assigned to the projects, under the leadership of architects and designers, become personally involved in designing and customizing the equipment. For the Human Rights and Alliance of Civilizations Room project they requested a made-to-measure design, minimalist but comfortable, modern, with state-of-the-art technology. The space also had to be adaptable to accommodate the different activities that will take place there. This meant some of the equipment had to be easily movable. The chaise model selected to furnish the room was the Bonamusa chair, with pastel-coloured natural leather finish to set off the already extraordinary dome. Seat finishes were customized and chairs were modified to adapt them to the concave floor surface. The design of the technical tables is completely original and takes into account strict safety and environmental codes, as well as the need to house the latest audiovisual systems.
    
    Our obsesion is reinventing the chair. We know how important it is for our customers that we rethink the seating for auditoriums, Theaters, Cinemas or Hotel Conference Rooms.
    
    Year after year we manage to make our chairs even more durable, even safer, even more apealing, even more modern. We manage to gain space without loosing commodity. We manage to rethink the space so architects can use it for different uses. We manage to make chairs with the best acoustics ever. Year after year we add our product the value we want. And then we start again.
    
    This way is how most of the renowed architects choose us for their projects. Cinema seating experts know that Figueras Seats really make the difference so their VIP seats become paid for in any film projection in any movie theather. Auditorium architects that work with us know for certain that our seating solutions are going to give their project the exclusive furniture design they are looking for. With our seating solutions all theater engineers become confident that their platea will have the best chairs available. Fire proff. Durable. Acoustically tested. Incredibly well looking.
    
    Yet, the best is our engineering and consulting department. We help our customers in all fases of a project. In a way, Figueras doesn't sell seats. We sell seating solutions for architecture. The examples are uncontable. From 360° rotation and a linear back-and-forward movement to chairs modified to adapt them to the concave floor surface. From high tech ergonomics to eco-design. Every customer have some requirements and we are there to adapt our products to their needs.
    
    Another example. The building that houses the LASALLE College of the Arts was designed to be integrated in a pedestrian space in the Rochor district. The first floor of the building is therefore completely open and accessible to the public. According to the building's creators, its design is inspired by works of sculpture, with corridors sculpted like natural caves. The auditorium was constructed as a 500-seat theatre. In addition to satisfying the aesthetic and ergonomic requirements that apply to modern seating, the chairs needed to meet acoustic demands, be fire-resistant, and make the most of the available space. With these factors in mind the RSP team opted for Figueras' Flame model, designed by Portuguese architect Filipe Oliveira Dias in collaboration with the Figueras Design Centre, in this case with individual armrests, beech trim and black upholstery.
    
    Yet another example: Jujurieux is a commune in the French region of Rhône-Alpes in the Ain department. As in many localities with small populations, the local council?s ability to provide a variety of facilities for different types of events is limited. So when the municipal council decided to renovate its assembly hall, the goal was to come up with a solution that would enable them to make the most of a single space. The project guidelines called for a seating system that would allow the hall to be cleared automatically in just a few minutes. To meet this requirement Figueras installed the Mutamut System, which makes it easy to convert an assembly hall equipped with movable seating into an open space that can be used to hold events of all types, including banquets, dances and ceremonies of any kind. The need for any additional storage space is eliminated since seating is kept under the stage when not in use. Seats move along floor rails to be stored under the stage, a system that makes changing the configuration of the hall a simple matter.
    
    The examples are simply countless. In our 75 years of history we got 37.000 references all around the glove with almost 8 million seats installed. We have 30 sales directors and 220 agents all over the world so we can help you no matter were you are. We are ready to help you.
