The Design

About Tiles Escritorio y silla

Tiles es un conjunto de escritorio y silla fabricado principalmente en cobre metálico. Las formas y los motivos siguen las tradiciones del mobiliario chino, mientras que el frío tono marrón del cobre aporta un carácter moderno a las siluetas sencillas y sólidas. El patrón decorativo se inspira en las tejas superpuestas de los tejados. La forma de la silla remite al sillón chino de estilo Ming. Un cojín de cuero marrón hace que el asiento resulte más cómodo. Las piezas de cobre se cortan, tallan, curvan, sueldan y pulen, y los bordes de las planchas se recubren con un tubo metálico que constituye la principal estructura de unión. Tiles es ideal para despachos y salones.
