Inspiration
Placing the coarse before the fine, preferring a choice that bucks the trend compared to the most common research into the slim form. Despite this, staying light, ethereal. The design is thus structured around the most reassuring aspect of the oversized: the simplicity. The minimalist and rugged structure is built with a powder-painted aluminium tube with diameter of 80 mm. Resting on it is a seat cushion with a rounded physique, a covert suggestion of the idea of the inflatable module. The back, like a bold parenthesis, promises comfort. The effect, as well as the natural appeal, is that of a pleasing roundness, casual and lightweight.
