‘strip’ is a small armchair that takes its form from that of a bloomed flower. created by milan-based designer fabio novembre for italian furniture manufacturer casamania, the seat is born from a surface that — as he states — ‘gently folds into itself, flowing outwards almost like that of a woman’s skirt with a slit running up its profile on one side’. and ‘symmetry is rare in nature’. novembre expresses this through the chair’s abstracted form. produced in polyethylene with rotational moulding it is available in different colors, in matte and lacquered versions. ‘strip’ is suitable for outdoor use and is on show at milan design week 2011.
