LIME STUDIO
Lime studio originated in 2005 with the aim to offer a simple, elegant and innovative design conception. Members of the studio are Panos Vasiliou and Oscar Tange. Their products that emerge by watching, imagining and examining are exhibited in London, Tokyo and Milan. The studio was awarded in a narrow selection in the best new brand according to Elle Decoration Design Awards 2008 as well as in other designer competitions.
SURFACE MATERIAL
CATEGORY A
-This collection comprises fabrics in a palette of earth tones with blends of cotton, linen and viscose, as well as 100% polyester. Fabrics in this collection are highly resistant to abrasion and meet cigarette burn resistance tests. -Category A includes the short piled Brunei Velvet. The surface of this fabric is finished with Teflon, which repels water, controls static and ensures stain resistance. -Grain is imitation leather material with antibacterial properties, which meets cigarette and match burn resistance tests. As a result, it is well suited for use in healthcare and aged care facilities.
LEATHER
The pigmented Prince and MDR leathers feature a regular embossed grain pattern with no surface defects, which makes these leathers particularly popular in restaurant and hotel establishments. Although the grain correction process removes leather’s natural permeability and soft touch, it brings a whole range of functional benefits – a uniform surface pattern, easy maintenance, and higher resistance to wear-and-tear and fading.
HEALTHCARE B
The Healthcare B collection of artificial leather fabrics boasts functional qualities suitable for the healthcare and aged care sectors. Guaranteeing easy maintenance, the fabrics are resistant to stains from urine, blood and disinfectants, and most of them meet the Crib 5 standard for fire retardant materials. In addition, special treatment on the fabric surface prevents the growth of bacteria.
PREMIUM LEATHER
Elmotique aniline leather is one of the highest quality leathers available on the market. Thanks to a careful selection of Scandinavian hides and the applied manufacturing process, which uses plant-based oils and water-soluble aniline dyes, the material breathes naturally and adjusts quickly to ambient temperature (environmental or human). Elmotique is very soft and features all the wonderful characteristics of natural leather.
CATEGORY C
-This category includes medium-weight fabrics made from Trevira CS. These permeable fabrics are highly resistant to abrasion and fading and meet the Crib 5 standard for flame retardant materials. -Category C includes the Lowlands Plain fabric with subtle over-felting and a high content of virgin wool. This high-quality natural material is inherently antibacterial, water-repellent and anti-static. The fabric is highly resistant to abrasion, holds its shape, does not absorb odours or dust, and meets the most stringent requirements for non-flammable materials.
CATEGORY D
-This category includes heavy-weight fabrics made from Trevira CS. These permeable fabrics are highly resistant to abrasion and fading and meet the Crib 5 standard for flame retardant materials. -Category D includes fabrics with a high content of virgin wool that have been treated with peeling. This process burns off excess fibres, preventing them from shedding while the product is in use.-Virgin wool is a natural material of high quality, inherently antibacterial, water-repellent and anti-static. The fabric holds its shape, does not absorb odours or dust, and meets the most stringent requirements for non-flammable materials. -The Milkyway fabric is unusual for its representation of the Milky Way, with a pattern that repeats every three metres. Chairs upholstered in the Milkyway fabric are unique originals and form a beautiful celestial whole when clustered around a table
WOOD AND COLOUR
AMERICAN WALNUT
Originating in North America, American walnut became popular in European furniture making during the seventeenth century. The wood is characterised by a dark-brown colour and accented with lighter bands and hints of purple. It is a hard, strong yet light wood, well suited for making furniture. The wood surface reaches a beautiful shine and colour, especially after oil impregnation.
BEECH ANTIQUE
If you would rather not wait for years before your furniture develops a natural patina, you can enjoy the look of antique furniture with this specialised finishing technique. Starting with a dark stain, Antique Finish imitates irregular scratches, sun-bleached spots, frequently touched areas and even woodworm bores. The imitation age marks are applied by hand with specially developed finishing materials, which in no way affect the product’s quality. Each resulting piece is an original.
OAK PIGMENT
Pigments cover the colour and texture of wood. Oak has a pronounced pore structure, however, and this remains visible after a pigment has been applied. This attribute influences the final look of the product, together with the original wood colour, the production process, the angle of light, as well as individual perception of colour.
BEECH PIGMENT
Pigments transform natural wood tones into a full spectrum of colour, covering fully the original wood tone as well as the texture. If a product has a design embossed on the seat or backrest, the design becomes less pronounced once a pigment has been applied. The final appearance of the pigment is influenced by the original colour and porosity of the wood, the production process, the angle of light, as well as individual perception of colour.
OAK STANDARD
-A strong and hard wood that will last for generations, oak has been prized in furniture making for centuries. Its natural colour and texture are characterised by a brown palette that is complemented with grey and yellow tones. -In Standard finish, we offer stains that do not affect the wood structure. Most of the shades do not hide the texture. The natural characteristics of oak allow the wood to absorb colour differently, resulting in a surface with lighter and darker markings. The final look of the product is also influenced by the original wood colour. A colour stain is always finished with a transparent water-based lacquer, which creates a durable, impervious coating that requires minimal maintenance. -For the Oak Natural option we recommend an oil finish, which is applied to the raw, worked surface. The colourless oil base comprising natural oils and waxes creates a protective matte coating that does not crack or peel. The oil highlights the natural colour of the wood, reveals its structure, and allows the wood to breathe. With the help of our Carebox, small scratches can be sanded over and re-oiled, leaving your TON product looking like new.
BEECH STANDARD
-Beech is one of the best known and most commonly used deciduous trees in furniture making. It is a hard, strong, homogenous wood, well suited for manual wood bending. Beech is light to pinkish light in colour with a less pronounced texture, as there is not a marked difference in the colour of spring and summer wood – the contrast that creates annual growth rings. -In Standard finish, we offer stains that do not affect the wood structure. Most of the shades do not hide the texture. The natural characteristics of beech allow the wood to absorb colour differently, resulting in a surface with light and dark markings. The final look of the product is also influenced by the original wood colour. A colour stain is always finished with a transparent water-based lacquer, which creates a durable, impervious coating that requires minimal maintenance. -The Beech Natural option can also be finished with oil, which is applied to the raw, worked surface. The colourless oil base comprising natural oils and waxes creates a protective matte coating that does not crack or peel. The oil highlights the natural colour of the wood, reveals its structure, and allows the wood to breathe. With the help of our Carebox, small scratches can be sanded over and re-oiled, leaving your TON product looking like new. -Each beech wood component reacts to selected technology in different ways. This natural property causes variation in component colour finish. Surface finishing with oil highlights these nuances. The colour aspect of independent wood components will even out and unify in a natural way with solar radiation and oxidation within a few months.
