The Design
About Revolving Especie 안락의자
Especie는 실내외 모두에서 사용할 수 있도록 디자인된 회전형 안락의자입니다. 이 안락의자는 철거 현장에서 재생한 원목을 샌딩하고 바니시로 마감하여 제작되었습니다. 회전 베이스는 스틸로 만들어졌습니다. 좌석은 중밀도 폴리우레탄으로 제작되어 요트용 원단으로 감싸져 있습니다. 베이스는 고정되어 있고 좌석은 회전합니다. 등받이는 사용자에게 편안함과 지지력을 제공하도록 경사져 있습니다. 발받침으로 사용할 수 있는 패브릭 벤치를 함께 제공할 수 있습니다. 그 형태는 1970년대 브라질 가구의 육중한 원목 볼륨과 뚜렷한 선을 따르고 있습니다.
