The nuance of the names created for the swatches of colours red and orange are poetic and evocative, thus making them invigorating, warm and above all cheerful.
As one of the three primary colours, red inspires strong and con�icting feelings. It notably symbolizes passion, �re, power, battle, prohibition and determination. A blazing colour, it is also synonymous with luxury and elegance.Obtained by mixing red and yellow, orange evokes positive concepts such as loyalty, trust and radiation. Bright and warm, this secondary colour is more daring and extravagant than the red.
Used for decoration, these vibrant colours introduce vitality and boldness within an interior. They energize a space too pale or lacking in character. They warm and illuminate a dark room. But beware, in high doses, red and orange can also in�ame and infuse anger or irritation, this negative e�ect being less for orange where the yellow hand tempers the red.
Use the red-orange sparingly rather than as a total look. A rug, a sofa, or a small piece of lacquered furniture is enough to create the desired e�ect and can also be highlighted with accessories, on a lamp, table, object or cushion.
Keep these tones for "moving" areas where there is activity such as an entrance hall, stairs, living room or kitchen. In these environ-ments, the red and orange will channel energies and structure the space.

Leather Top
Materials to touch, materials to admire and appreciate, leather and wood are part of everyday life for “Mr Average”. Since the start of time, furniture, objects and tools have been manufactured and appreciated for the sensations they produce and recognized for their strength and durability.
These two natural materials, widely used in trade and industry, are seen as noble and beautiful when they are handled by talented craftsmen who respect their characteristics and know how to enhance their features. The works of marquetry and luxury leather goods are examples of the wonders that can be produced with wood and leather.
Their sensual and irregular forms are inviting to touch. Close your eyes and let go to feel the movements of the surface, velvety or rough. The veins and knots in
the wood, the grain and neck creases of the leather create innumerable di�erent patterns.

The Maillol is the symbolic model of the Canapés Duvivier collection.
Designed in 1985, it took its bestseller status in 1991 when it became Duvivier’s model of the year with the photo of the famous "Maillol on the beach," remaining etched in memories as the perfect image of the brand. For the record, this shot was made on the beach at Trégastel in Brittany at low tide with a very uncertain weather forecast: extremely poor conditions and a very tight schedule for a magni�cent photo that symbolizes the spirit "beyond time and trends ".
Since then it has undergone many changes, for the most part imperceptible like the removal of the piping, front panel section on the cushions or a reduction in the height of the front structural base. Two major changes occurred in the mid-2000s:it became available in two di�erent depths 102 cm and 110 cm to �t all body types;
it could be equipped with integrated headrests with the framework sliding behind the back cushions. Long awaited, the latest evolution of the Maillol is the chaiselongue
sofa that brings new possibilities of comfort and use with a chaiselongue of generous proportions.

In consequence to the bohemian style, the "mismatch" is a relaxed and uninhibited design approach. With "mix and match" daring and imagination are allowed.
Regardless of shapes, materials and colours, pleasure is taken in combining objects or furniture that one admires. Gathered during the course of life, memories of a trip or family heirloom, long coveted or eye catching pieces. One is left unchecked to follow their desires and imagination.
By necessity, the principle of mismatching has long existed in the living area. Certain sofa models, whose arms are bulky, are not feasible as an armchair. In this case, it is suggested to combine one or several small armchairs in choosing coordinated or di�erent upholstery. The mixture of styles and colours are generally quite conventional.
However, mismatching chairs around the dining table is newer and bolder, as it is for tableware, experimenting with the "mix and match" of shapes, colours and / or materials.You can even go as far as arranging dining chairs, stools, chairs and a bench around the table.

In contrast to the bright colours like red, blue or orange with an arti�cial connotation, natural tones ranging from beige to brown or dark grey, refer to mineral or vegetal matter: pebbles at the edge of the sea, tree bark or mountain rock. These associate a life more in harmony with nature, creating an atmosphere of serenity conducive to relaxation within an interior space.
Material colours
Mineral references bring to mind limestone cli�s and white sandy beaches. For the upholstery of sofas and armchairs, one favours the semi-aniline leather like the Boxcalf or Nappaline that allow for a wider range of colour and a more uniform appearance.

Back to nature … Choosing a range of natural shades to furnish and decorate interiors is not recent. Yet the new consumer fashion veers towards more environ-mentally friendly products, a natural style which �xes itself �rmly in the heart of today’s real trends within decoration.
Colours of certain rocks, like grey, can be added to an interior to give it a more contem-porary feel. But it should not be used alone in account of creating an atmosphere too "hard". It combines itself perfectly with other natural colours, like granite boulders.
The contemporary grey
Colours usually associated with leather come in many shades, sometimes slightly orangey-red, sometimes with a hint of blue. With these colours the drum-dyed and aniline leathers have a vibrant depth and �nal �nish.

Materials to take into accountWith the choice of two-tone, decoration can be boring, �at and dull. To avoid this pitfall,increase the materials and �nishes whilst retaining the tone on tone aspect.On a white leather sofa, add white cushions in velvet, satin and fur. For a sideboard in black mattand/or bright lacquer, create a setting with vases and black objects in ceramic,leather, paper or stained wood.

both invigorating, contemporary and warm.However, for a "black & white" atmosphere
to succeed, some rules must be followed.

Unevenness in playTo escape the checkerboard or "yin-yang" e�ect , choose one of thetwo colours to make it the more dominant, white preferably, whichwill bring more light and be more neutral, or black for a more masculinecontemporary connotation. Walls and ceilings really must be whiteto create the background and reserve black for some architecturalelements or pieces of furniture such as a sofa,sideboard or chairs.
Warm up with lightsIn a black and white decor, lighting is essential. In addition to the mainlighting, increase the areas of light, adapting, of course, to the naturallight in the room. An interior �ooded with sunlight through large windowsor bay windows, does not require as many �xtures as when the openingsare narrow and poorly angled.

Emphasize with a touch of colourOpting for a "black & white" decor does
not prohibit the use of adding colours. On the contrary, some colourful touches,
carefully placed make it possible to createa link between white and black. Pink, violet
and purple clearly bring softness and a feminine touch. With primary and secondary colours such
as red, yellow and green, the atmosphere is more toned and more cheerful. Brown is used for an
ethnic and more masculine style. In all cases, youmust choose a colour category and not
divert from it, as this would break downthe overall harmony of the room.

Materials to take into accountWith the choice of two-tone, decoration can be boring, �at and dull. To avoid this pitfall,increase the materials and �nishes whilst retaining the tone on tone aspect.On a white leather sofa, add white cushions in velvet, satin and fur. For a sideboard in black mattand/or bright lacquer, create a setting with vases and black objects in ceramic,leather, paper or stained wood.

Unevenness in playTo escape the checkerboard or "yin-yang" e�ect , choose one of thetwo colours to make it the more dominant, white preferably, whichwill bring more light and be more neutral, or black for a more masculinecontemporary connotation. Walls and ceilings really must be whiteto create the background and reserve black for some architecturalelements or pieces of furniture such as a sofa,sideboard or chairs.
Warm up with lightsIn a black and white decor, lighting is essential. In addition to the mainlighting, increase the areas of light, adapting, of course, to the naturallight in the room. An interior �ooded with sunlight through large windowsor bay windows, does not require as many �xtures as when the openingsare narrow and poorly angled.

The living room is a place where we come together as a family to eat, play or just talk, one where we receive visitors, where we watch television, a place where we relax to read or listen to music. Sometimes, it is also a place that serves as an o�ce or playroom for children.To meet all these functions, the layout of the room must be carefully thought out. To ensure that all the requirements are as equal as possible, we must �rst de�ne the priorities by questioning the lifestyle of the occupants. Is it really a communal area you want or should it have separate spaces that can be isolated from the rest of the room? Do the di�erent components of furniture and furnishings need to adapt to di�erent times of day or di�erent activities that take place there ?
To furnish a large living room, the same constraints and requirements apply as for a living-dining room with more modest propor-tions: develop a multifunc-tional space and de�ne "activity zones". The speci�c challenge to XXL areas lies in choosing furniture that must adapt to the size of the room.

The choice of furniture is essential to the development of a large living room or one faces the disastrous "Alice in Wonderland" e�ect: furniture that appears tiny in relation to the proportions of the room.
• Sofas, armchairs, etc. The sectional models are ideally adapted for spacious environments. They occupy an area which is clearly de�ned. They have, however, the drawback of low modularity. If this is important, it is best to choose a two or three-seater sofa that can be positioned at an angle or face-to-face and with which armchairs can be added. The ottomans are also elements
to incorporate creating additional seating that can be moved easily and occupy the
space without creating visual barriers.• Co�ee tables, side tables, etc. One can opt for a large co�ee table that will occupy all the space in the centre of the room. But the best solution is to choose several small tables that can be assembled and rearranged as one wishes. Indeed, the latter option has a double advantage: great modularity of the components and refreshing decoration by the play on colours and sizes.• Dining room table. In a vast living space, choose a
large dining table without exten-sions. By choosing a �xed table there are
greater possibilities in terms of leg styles and materials that can be used.• Bookcases, sideboards, etc. They can have a dual function: storage and de�nition. In the latter case, they are positioned in the middle of the room to separate the di�erent spaces and must be visible from the front and back. Care must be taken not to compartmentalise too tightly and thus when it comes to a bookcase, choose a double face that can be seen through.
Choosing furniture
In order that spaces are clearly identi-�able or separated discretely, it is necessary to plan rationally the sepa-rate areas to be created: the living area which is organised around the sofa, the
dining area with the dining-room table, and possibly secondary spaces like a TV corner, relaxation or o�ce. There are several options to create the boundaries:
- Choose di�erent colours of paint, but coordinate the walls- Use furniture, sofas or double sided book-cases to "close" an area- Distinguish the areas with rugs

Alain Souchon, a famous French singer, once admitted with delight in one of his songs "j’veux du cuir" (I want leather). In his lyrics, he claims his fondness for a material that appears in ordinary daily life. He a�rms the sensual, nearly addictive, side to leather. In clothing as in furniture, seeing an old bomber jacket or a vintage lounge chair for example brings to mind adventure and experiences, inner wealth, timelessness.

FULL FRAMEBeautiful leather - it is natural and authentic, supple and resistant. To obtain these qualities, there are three essential points that must be combined: the quality of the hide, the expertise of the tanner and a “full-grain” �nish with a colour that reveals the true nature of leather.
What is beautiful leather ?
Drum dyed or aniline: the colour of the leather is obtained by immersion in a
dye bath (drum dyed) or by immersion and thenwith a projection of dye on the surface (aniline).
Pigmented semi-aniline: small coating of pigmentation is projectedonto the surface for a uniform colour whilemaintaining a comfortable feel.
Different qualities of leather
Beyond the aesthetic and tactile virtues, beautiful leather possesses a number of other bene�ts. A natural material being in the same league as silk or pure wool, it is an excellent thermal regulator and absorbs moisture: feeling warmth in winter and coolness in summer. By its tissue structure (intertwined �bres in three dimensions), a leather of quality is particularly resistant. Well maintained, it acquires a patina over time. Small scratches will fade by the friction of �bres. The marks disappear in the thickness of the leather.
Comfort and durability
The keys to beautiful leather
CENTQUATRE
Coating: this is truly a layer of pigmentation which isapplied to the hide, as it could be on anysynthetic material. The result holds noresemblance to natural leather in termsof quality, durability and comfort.
Hide quality: hides come from young European bulls origina-ting from non high-yielding stockbreeders. They possess the physical and mechanical characteris-tics of youth and good health: supple and resistant.
Leather colouring:it determines its feel and appearance. To have a beautiful leather with an exceptional touch anda long lasting aspect, one must choose a slightlyor non pigmented leather. The layer of pigmentis what provides a uniform colour and hides the defects. There is also a �lm on the surface of the leather, a light coating if slightly pigmented,a thick layer if heavily pigmented.
Tanning qualities:a tanner must master the tanning process from preparation through to the �nal treatment. It is the combination of an ancient craftsmanship together with the ever more e�cient processing of the hides which produce authentic and hardwearing leather.
Leather �nish: to have supple, resistant leather with a natural
aspect, one must choose “full-grain”. Otherwise sanding the surface for the defects to disappear
will greatly reduce the elasticity of the leather and its lifetime, and printing an arti�cial grain will alter and distort the appearance, with the leather
changing and hardening to touch.

The size, or more precisely the volume, is a key point to choosing a sofa bed, even more than for a standard sofa. Indeed, integrating the bed mecha-nism imposes minimum width dimensions as well as for the depth. It requires relatively thick armrests for the mechanism to be securely attached. This set of constraints can give some models imposing dimen-sions and sometimes a bulky appearance.Moreover, you need to take into account the dimen-sions of the sofa when it is closed but also when it is open in the sleeping position. There must be enough space in the room where it is placed to be able to open fully.
On a sofa bed, the bed base and mattress fold into three thus being hidden within the body of the sofa under the seat cushions. The mechanism to open and close the bed must be �exible and easy to use, especially if it is for regular use.

RIGHT CHOICE
Whether furnishing a small Parisian apartment in which the bed will be used daily, or to equip a guest room or a holiday home for a more occasional use, the sofa bed should be comfor-table and practical to ensure a good nights sleep.For choosing the right one, three criteria must be taken into account: the size, the opening and closing mechanism and the quality of the mattress and bed base.
Last but not least, to have a good nights sleep, you need good bedding.For the base, di�erent comforts are possible depending on whether you choose a slatted mechanism, stretched cloth or a mixture of metal grid with stretched cloth.In contrast for the mattress, it is imperative to have high resilient foam, and ideally a minimum thickness of 11 cm, to maintain an equal comfort over time.

RIGHT CHOICE
Whether furnishing a small Parisian apartment in which the bed will be used daily, or to equip a guest room or a holiday home for a more occasional use, the sofa bed should be comfor-table and practical to ensure a good nights sleep.For choosing the right one, three criteria must be taken into account: the size, the opening and closing mechanism and the quality of the mattress and bed base.
Last but not least, to have a good nights sleep, you need good bedding.For the base, di�erent comforts are possible depending on whether you choose a slatted mechanism, stretched cloth or a mixture of metal grid with stretched cloth.In contrast for the mattress, it is imperative to have high resilient foam, and ideally a minimum thickness of 11 cm, to maintain an equal comfort over time.

The qualityof the bed baseand mattress
Sofa beds, like the Nabis and Morzine, are designed to allow easy and rapid transfor-mation into the sofa bed. The cushions remain attached and disappear under the bed frame. The mattresses are in high resilient Bultex foam 38kg / m3 and have a thickness of 13 cm.
Convertible sofas are standard models which can be equipped with a mechanism to turn it into a bed. In these cases, the folded mecha-nism replaces the suspension of the seat. The mattress is in high resilient Bultex foam 40kg / m3 and has a thickness of 6 cm.

as they are functional for both day and night.
Cut the pieces of leather from the hides on an automated and computerized cutting line taking care beforehand to clearly identify the areas with defects on the hide. At the exit of the cutting line, group these leather pieces for the next stage in the manufacturing.
Pare each piece of leather (also known as skiving). This is the process of thinning the leather edge to facilitate sewing.
Assemble the leather pieces that will make up the covers for the structure, armrests and seat cushions. Finish by sewing the seams: saddle stitch and simple stitch, depending on the section.

The Mermoz armchair is a model apart in the Cana-pés Duvivier collection. It possesses a vintage mythical spirit that refers to the world of Anglo-Saxon club armchairs for men. This model has above all a distinctive taut back, and thus, no removable back cushion. However, its production in the workshops at Usson du Poitou takes place in accordance with the same process as for the other models, a well calibrated recipe for comfort and unmatched quality.
TechnicalMANUFACTURING
An armchair apart
- Antique style leather hides: Antika- A solid beechwood frame and beech plywood for the central part and armrests- Foam covering the structure, without forgetting the bi-density foam seat cushions- Springs and red rubber struts for suspension- Square wooden feet- Sewing thread (it’s a little like the icing on the cake…)
Cutting and sewing leather
Insert the cushion foam into its leather cover taking care to adjust the corners.
Attach the rubber struts and suspension springs onto the structure. Cover the wooden structure with foam obtaining a soft result.
Cushion �lling and the corestructure
Throw the leather cover onto the back of the structure and pull it tight adjusting to its shape. Ensure there is no slack leather before stapling. Then upholster the two armrests with their covers. Take particular care when stapling on the rounded parts.
Assemble all parts of the armchair: main structure, armrests and armrest pads. Attach the feet and add the seat cushions.

Comfort is a matter of personal judgment. Some prefer to have a �rm back and seat support. Others like to slouch and sink into a plush sofa. Some sit well back while others sit on the edge of the seat cushion.From a technical point of view, the comfort of a sofa can be changed by adjusting certain elements:
- High back: with a high backed sofa or armchair the entire back is �rmly supported and the shoulders can relax for a sustained upright comfort. Aestheti-cally, they are the models with a more classic appearance.
- Sloping seat: this technical term refers to the slight slope that is given to the seat which allows one to sit back properly into the sofa. It avoids the sensa-tion of sliding forward.
- Bi-density foam: the seat and back cushions can be composed of di�erent densities of foam that better adopts itself to the body shape or reinforces the possibility of settling yourself well back into the seat.
- Seat depth: depending on whether someone is small or tall the depth of a model may not always be appropriate. If small, in a deep sofa the feet do not touch the ground and the legs are “cut” at the calves. If tall, in a small depth sofa the knees are not supported and will have the feeling of being folded in half.The Maillol sofa was developed in two di�erent depths to allow everyone to choose the model most suitable for them.
Canapés DUVIVIER 35
For sofa structures, Canapés Duvivier always uses solid beechwood for the cross pieces and
beech plywood for the side panels. These materials, unlike softwood and chipboard
guarantee the sturdiness of the furniture and, because
they are imper-vious to dampness,
do not distort.
TechnicalMANUFACTURING
The SBD suspension, a patented system developed by Canapés Duvivier, has a double bearing capacity which means a suppler and more progressive comfort on the whole seating area. Technical polyurethane foam provides a soft comfort and then underneath, the suspension is composed of stainless steel springs mounted in composite rubber struts which work as shock-absorbers. In addition to a unique comfort, the materials used and the conception are guarantees against deterioration or distortion and ensure the mechanism works silently.
The interior seat cushions are composed of:
• either HR PU (High Resilience Polyurethane) foam and a blend of polyester �bres and feathers in a segmented cotton slipcover• or HR PU foam in a protective cotton slipcover
The blend of polyester �bres and feathers is a mix of hypoal-lergenic treated duck feathers and intertwined polyester �bres in 3 dimensions, thus providing a natural pu�ness obtained from the feather and resilience obtained from the �bres.The High Resilience polyurethane foam and the association of perfectly studied densities guarantee comfort and longevity.

The leather industry is one of the oldest in the history of humanity. Our Paleolithic ancestors used hides to protect themselves but the hides were not tanned, just �eshed. Their duration of use was limited because of the hides decomposing.
Tanning is a process that allows the conservation of the hide. It was born in ancient Egypt, on the Nile, 3000 years before Christ, and in China at the same time. It is known as "vegetal tanning": the �eshed and depilated hide is soaked in a pit (then later, a tank) containing water and a powder obtained by grinding vegetation: oak, chestnut, mimosa or birch bark.
The proteins of the hide (collagen �bres) are stabi-lized by a chemical reaction. It becomes rot-resis-tant leather subject to being maintained in condi-tions well hydrated. Other tanning techniques like oil, smoke and alum have been tried but gave poor results so were little used.
In the middle of the 20th century the process of using chromium salts for tanning was discovered and developed. The procedure was much faster than with vegetal tanning and resulted in more supple leather. However, chromium tanning is particularly toxic for rivers and streams which the tanneries used for wastewater disposal. In the 1980’s regulations were put in place to protect the environment, which resulted in a number of tanneries disappearing.
Leather,a natural material
The Carriat tannery is one of the last active tanneries in France and the only one that works within the furniture industry. Based in the Basque country in the South West of France, it produces, since 1927, leathers of exceptional quality that incorporate the natural marks of the animal’s life: wrinkles, blemishes, veins, all authentic marks of a living matter. Its leathers have a strong character with deep, transparent colours. They are supple, soft and resistant.An honoured partner, the Carriat tannery supplies all the drum-dyed referenced leathers for Canapés Duvivier.
The Carriat Tannery,a know-how of expertise
Hide�:A hide is made up of two �brous proteins :
collagen that provides its resistanceand elastin which gives elasticity.These two characteristics dependon the animal species, its age and
the fodder quality which conditionsthe regeneration of the protein �bres.
Bovinae (cattle) :Term used to designate the species of animalof the bovine hides. Bovinae are a subfamilyof Bovidae comprising the "bos taurus", bu�alo,bison, yaks, Zebu.
Bull calf�:A bull calf is a young unneutered
male bovine bred to produce meat.Fed grass and food supplements, they are
slaughtered between 18 and 24 months.
Buffalo�:Bu�alo is a subcategory of the
bovine family. The hide is characterizedby its large grain, a great resistance buthas very little suppleness and elasticity.
Split leather�:"Split leather" is an inside layerof the hide (that is trimmedand �nished as suede), obtainedby “splitting” the hide thickness.
