Guará Armchair
Once again, designing a lounge chair, I feel coherence, beginning from good postures, comfort, and ergonomics.

Sergio rotating Armchair
Chairs and armchairs are difficult pieces to design and to build. The Sergio Rotating Armchair has its greatest difficulty at the rotating metal structure, by being completely handmade, taking no advantage in the ease of an industrial component. I was in my Atelier, in the developing process of this armchair, when I got the emotional […]
