Marc Sadler

French, born in Austria, Italian by adoption, one of the first students to graduate from the “esthétique industrielle” course at the ENSAD in Paris, Marc Sadler is a pioneer in experimenting with materials and in mixing different technologies, both of which have become distinctive traits of his work as an industrial designer.
In the early 70s he creates the first ski boot made of fully-recyclable thermoplastic material that is then industrialised by the Italian Caber company. Nowadays, he is acknowledged as an eclectic designer capable of combining style, functionality and competitiveness to the benefit of companies working in very diverse industrial fields.
A 4-time Compasso d’Oro award winner, he has received 4 Mentions of Honour from the ADI Industrial Design Association as well as many important international acknowledgements over the years.

Marc Sadler’s creations for Desiree include Glow-in, a timeless modern sofa, this cosy, oversize model is ideal for contemporary homes and today’s ‘in’ places.
Monopoli, a sofa that offers even more freedom for customisation. Oozing personality, it can interpret shape according to the taste of whoever chooses it, using backrests and armrests that can be positioned wherever required, making this model original and distinctive.
Lovely Day, a centre room sofa conceived for sharing relaxing moments during the day or a romantic tête à tête. The sculptural metal foot it stands on is amazing and makes the sofa appear airy, almost suspended.
Haneda, a seating system inspired by tatami that stands out for its total flexibility and infinite combinations.
