Piana
Chair
You may also like
The result of painstaking research developed by David Chipperfield on the different types of folding chairs made historically and in recent times, the project focused on a few, but substantial, elements. Piana is composed of three components that revolve around a single axis. Very robust, it integrates easily into heterogeneous settings and is extremely compact when closed. Formal simplicity, rigor and precision: Piana's visual language is indicative, in its simplicity, of the function and role of the object itself.
