The graceful functional sofa range Rolf Benz Aura is a tribute to elegance and satisfies the desire for authentic materials. Its generous seat cushions appear to float on a delicate table top. This is available in four different surfaces – in veneered walnut, veneered oak in natural or black varnish, or in veneered natural slate. Rolf Benz AURA combines the finest craftsmanship with luxurious seating comfort. The backrest cushions can be folded back to form an especially high backrest that can be steplessly adjusted to a comfortable relaxing position. For individual relaxation that can be precisely adjusted ergonomically by using the 2 seat heights offered. The adjustable side sections provide side support and a comfortable lying position. If you fold the side section down and swivel the seat, Rolf Benz AURA becomes a comfortable long chair. At the same time, the platform that this creates becomes a practical table for glasses, plates, books or trays. Interlocking tables provide additional storage space and optical transparency if required. The light and airy appearance of Rolf Benz AURA is underlined by its delicate and elegant cast aluminium legs that are available in black, umbra grey or polished. • Seat with metal inner frame and integrated rotary function • Nosag spring support • Seat made from polyurethane foam, constructed in layers of different thicknesses and firmnesses, matched to one another, and covered with polyester fleece • Backrest with metal inner frame and integrated adjustment function • Back in polyurethane foam, built up in coordinated layers, varying in height, and firmness • Cover quilted underneath with non-woven polyester • Legs optionally available in finishes: \- Cast aluminium leg smooth powder-coated silk matt RAL9017 traffic black \- Cast aluminium leg smooth powder -coated silk matt RAL7022 umbra grey \- Cast aluminium leg polished • Shelves MDF optionally veneered in finishes: \- Oak H98 - Oak H70 \- Walnut H81 \- Real stone veneer slate • Seat height options 41 cm or 44 cm • Seat depth 62 cm The high-grade materials used are tested in accordance with DIN and RAL directives and subject to long-term testing.
