zieta initially started his work with a curiosity over whether steel could be inflated.
through his research work,  he began working with FIDU technology, which is a high
pressure interior conversion process that allows him to make heavy steel material appear
completely light.  in the past, zieta has developed chairs, benches and other seating
furniture out of steel, which ends up resembling colored balloons.

'zieta limited' is currently being presented as part of design miami basel 2010.

I really like what oskar zieta does and I love the technique of FIDU.
But I have to say that I find the original Plopp-stool still his best design. It just fits.
With the other designs e.g. chair and table it becomes too much. It's time to think bigger with this idea, not just furniture, but also architecture and engineering.
