Design Niels Bendtsen, 2010
Upholstery, metal, aluminum
Made in Holland by Montis

Ella is a compact seat allowing you to adopt all manners of sitting postures easily while properly supported at all times. A notable feature is its buckled dish shape which, together with its geometrically faceted sides gives a truly distinctive look to the armchair. The legs consist of a sled base strip, 4-star or 3-toe swivel. The seat is foam molded entirely from polyurethane and has an especially high degree of durability.

Niels Bendtsen lives and works in Vancouver, Canada. He was educated at institutes in both Copenhagen (Denmark) and Vancouver (Canada). The 'ribbon-chair', designed by Niels, is an exhibit in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Ella can be ordered with a 4-star swivel base in matte black or brushed aluminum or 3-toe cross swivel base (black metal base with wooden profiles) with oak and walnut options. Because of its range of application and small scale, Ella is very useful as an additional seating unit both at home as well as in public spaces.

Please note: Because of the hollow shape of this product, in combination with the used filling, puckering occurs during upholstery and/or use. The degree of puckering is determined by the elasticity of the upholstery. This is indeed inevitable, but gives a pleasant nonchalance, which makes the piece of furniture less strict.

Niels Bendtsen

Bendtsen gained valuable skills and a respect for hand-built traditions as an apprentice, and was intrigued by new technologies. Between 1963 and 1972, Bendtsen had his own retail store where he sold imported Scandinavian designs. He designed small items for the store, but it wasn't until he was in his early thirties that he truly began designing furniture.
Montis stands out with unique color combinations and the use of various leathers. Montis sets itself apart from its competitors and achieves high comfort by often applying techniques that came to be regarded as distinctly Dutch.
