About Tura Mahaia
Tura Mahaia piramideetatik hartzen du inspirazioa, Tura harriarekin eraikiak, erresilientziaren eta historiaren sinbolo. Eragin honek bere izena eta diseinua moldatu zituen, antzinako eta gaur egungo estetika uztartuz. Harri itxurako hiru oinarri ditu, fibra beiraz egindakoak harriaren ehundura erreproduzitzeko pisua murrizten den bitartean. Junturarik gabeko beirazko gainazal bat, silikonazko loturarekin finkatua, beheko ehundura latzarekin kontrastean dago. Harriek egonkortasuna ematen dute, eta beiraak arintasuna eta funtzionaltasuna gehitzen ditu. Historiaren eta artisautza garaikidearen fusio honek Tura Mahaia denbora gainditzen duen pieza enblematiko bihurtzen du.
