With minimalist language, the piece is the result of few elements. A single long line that curves to be the structure and receive the seat, the armrests and the backrest. The product offers the possibility of countless compositions of types of wood and fabrics, which may have a sober and elegant appearance, or young and bold. Although simple and thin, the seat is comfortable and anatomical, its appearance deceives the viewer who is surprised to sit. The wooden structure was reinforced with a tubular metal core, to ensure that the armrests were resistant and withstand constant use.
