paris-based designer christophe pillet has developed a seating structure that flows from a single surface,
moulded according to the shapes of the body. entitled the 'pulp' chair, the cantilevered polypropylene form has been
developed for italian furniture kristalia. the design is easy to clean, resistant to wear and stackable,
making it ideal for use in the contract furnishing sector and community areas.
