About Revolving Especie Koltuk
Especie, hem iç hem de dış mekân kullanımı için tasarlanmış döner bir koltuktur. Koltuk, yıkım işlerinden geri kazanılan, zımparalanıp verniklenen masif ahşaptan üretilmiştir. Döner taban çelikten yapılmıştır. Oturma birimi orta yoğunluklu poliüretandan üretilmiş ve deniz kumaşıyla kaplanmıştır. Taban sabit kalırken oturma birimi döner. Sırt dayanağı, kullanıcıya konfor ve destek sunmak amacıyla eğimli tasarlanmıştır. Ayak dayanağı olarak döşemeli bir bank da temin edilebilir. Form, 1970'lerin Brezilya mobilyalarına özgü masif ahşap hacimleri ve belirgin çizgileri izler.
