The Design

About Less is More Cadeira

A inspiração para esta cadeira foi um resumo da pandemia vivida nos últimos anos e as lições aprendidas. O design sempre representou aspectos sociais, e hoje em dia um produto precisa representar esses elementos-chave como conforto, sem excessos e sustentabilidade mais do que nunca. Simplicidade é muitas vezes o mais difícil de alcançar. Para ser simples é preciso eliminar os excessos e o desnecessário e isso pode ser alcançado na vida e também no design. O resultado é uma cadeira minimalista, elegante e sustentável.
