discover here the first - and perhaps only type of
meat that can not be improved by adding sauce.
rugs of meat!
furry meat on the floor has never looked so tasty! |
a cut of ‘mortadella’ above, a cut of ‘salami’ below |
‘bierschinken’? it is good enough to eat on its own - walk all over it! |

choose a graphic and fold.
this is all you need do to achieve
your own ‘slanted position’. |
|
the graphic panels as seen on the wall, become the seat and back of the easy chair. |
anything can be printed on it and components pack compactly. |
easy to assemble - simply overlap the two prongs... |
...six small bolts fasten the graphic to its aluminium legs... |
... all that is left is to sit back and rest comfy! the designer - sebastian hess, shows how it is done. |
