Cross Bonaldo ottoman: a review by Arredare Moderno

The Bonaldo Cross ottoman was created together with its twin Belt. Therefore, both these ottomans, created by Allain Gilles, feature a modern design with soft lines. Instead, the base is made of veneered wood or metal and the upholstery is available in different finishes. Versatility allows them to be easily adapted to various modern furnishing styles. Here is everything you need to know about the Bonaldo Cross Ottoman.

Bonaldo Belt & Cross ottoman

The Belt & Cross ottomans, designed by Alain Gilles for Bonaldo, were conceived as “brothers” with different personalities. The upholstered upper part remains the same in both Belt and Cross; it has no straight lines but only curved surfaces that gently complement each other, floating gracefully on their base.

What differentiates them is the base, which gives each of them a distinct personality: the round metal base of the Belt pouf plays with the concept of stability, while the cross-shaped wooden base of Cross is the detail that makes this complement immediately recognisable.

While their commonalities make them ideal to be paired together, like two members of the same family with opposing characters that complement each other, it is their differences and the different combinations that can be realised that create a dynamic, lively and ever-changing environment.
