...I love it!!!
iarita   02.01.10
Beautiful!!
scottallyn   02.01.10
Awesome !!

Probably one of the best projects I have seen in a while ! I think it's an example of what design is supposed to be .. fucking clever and fucking beautiful. Too much quasi-art rubbish is being made nowdays.
Cr   02.02.10
Way to much form. No freshness.
M   02.02.10
estetically great but...does it is really comfortable to sit on this seat? on a serie of tubes? I'd like to try...
Silvia   02.02.10
nice, but I can't see the "f...... clever" part
noes'   02.02.10
It is a nice! I do have concerns about it's comfort. I also agree with Scott about too much f..... quasi-art design being produce.
Rome   02.03.10
Brilliant..
Penghao   02.03.10
It looks more suited as an outdoor bench, not so much an indoor chair, as its form suggests.
leowmc   02.03.10
wow....
Ajay Sekar   02.03.10
How is the aluminium and wood joined...?
If its glued, the products sucks.
Anything else...good product i guess.
