The Design

About Familial Cadira

Familial és una cadira de fusta dissenyada per ser utilitzada tant per infants com per adults. Un simple moviment gira la cadira i la converteix en una segona configuració. Així, una sola peça de mobiliari serveix per a dos grups d'edat, cosa que estalvia espai i redueix la quantitat de material necessari. La geometria i els angles de la cadira s'han perfeccionat per mantenir el seient ergonòmic i confortable. Familial respon a les necessitats dels espais habitables més reduïts de les ciutats densament poblades, on el mobiliari multifuncional resulta útil. El disseny equilibra l'aparença i la funció.
