A series of chairs and tables by Barcelona-based
designer Mario Ruiz is both fresh and familiar

Appearing as though they could have easily adorned the fictional
offices of Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce on Mad Men, it comes as no
surprise that the November series was inspired by North American
office interiors from the 1950s and 1960s.
Featuring a lounge chair and side table (1), a coffee table, and a
side chair (3), the series was designed for HBF by Mario Ruiz (above),
who leads his eponymous design studio in Barcelona, Spain. His
previous collaborations with HBF include the Duna lounge collection,
the Linea casegoods series, and the new Linea conference series. His
product portfolio also features lighting, furniture, office equipment, and
applied graphics for companies such as Dynamobel, Schneider Electric,
and Steelcase.
The simple yet sculpted November series offers many mix-andmatch opportunities, making each piece equally at home in hospitality
60
and office settings. The lounge and side chairs are available armless or
with upholstered or looped metal arms. The chairs may sit atop oak legs
or four-star metal bases (2); the latter features an optional self-return
swivel. Similarly, the 20-inch diameter side tables and 42-inch diameter
coffee tables may be made with oak, back-painted glass, or solid
surface tops paired with either brushed stainless steel or oak legs.
The November series is SCS Indoor Advantage certified and
BIFMA level 1 certified. View the series during NeoCon® in space 387.
