About Butterfly Kursi
Butterfly adalah sebuah kursi yang terinspirasi dari bentuk kupu-kupu. Garis-garis lengkung sayapnya diekstraksi dan dikembangkan menjadi bentuk dudukan, sandaran, serta kaki kursi. Sandaran dan permukaan dudukan terbagi menjadi dua bagian, mengikuti gerakan sayap. Kursi ini terbuat dari baja berkecepatan tinggi (high-speed steel) dan dibentuk sebagai satu kesatuan utuh melalui pencetakan 3D, sehingga menghasilkan kekuatan yang baik serta kilau metalik. Strukturnya stabil, dengan bentuk dan struktur yang menyatu secara harmonis. Kursi ini dapat digunakan untuk beristirahat, membaca, maupun sebagai elemen dekorasi.
