About Binario

Binario is a refined modular seating system designed by Pinuccio Borgonovo for Flou in 2019. Defined by its light, clean lines and understated elegance, Binario strikes a seamless balance between contemporary aesthetics and everyday functionality. Its versatile character makes it equally at home in intimate residential settings and sophisticated public or professional spaces, offering a timeless design language that transcends trends.

Design Details

The name Binario — Italian for “track” or “rail” — is a direct nod to one of the collection’s most distinctive design signatures: the carefully considered parallel stitching that runs along the armrests and generous back cushions. Far from merely decorative, these refined details speak to the craftsmanship and attention to quality woven into every element of the piece. Elevated seat heights further enhance the overall sense of openness and ease, creating an inviting presence in any room.

The Signature Double Foot

One of Binario’s most striking features is its characteristic double foot, crafted from matte burnished metal. This architectural detail anchors the design with a sense of structure and sophistication, reinforcing the collection’s contemporary identity while delivering lasting stability and durability. It is a small but defining element that sets Binario apart from conventional seating solutions.

Modular Flexibility

Binario is built around the principle of adaptability. Its fully modular construction allows seats and poufs to be freely reconfigured, enabling spaces to evolve alongside changing needs and preferences. Available in linear two- and three-seater compositions, the system offers a broad range of layout possibilities suited to domestic living rooms, hotel lounges, waiting areas, and beyond — making Binario an enduring investment for those who value both beauty and practicality.
