It's bold, and contemporarily elegant in a way which that can only be described as endearing and I want one. It's the W.02 chair for the Portuguese group Branca Lisboa by Marco Sousa Santos. This chair is a homage to my admiration for the 3 c's. Colour, Contrast and Contemporary. The tonal blend of the coloured seat, the back rest and rear legs mixed with that Birch Plywood finish, really works together in only a way a true design alchemist could achieve. Available in any RAL colour (on request) you can use them to compliment any home or commercial scheme. There is more than meets the eye to this exquisite piece as at first glance you may preempted to think the chair would be relatively hard to sit on for prolonged periods of time. The seat and backing are actually comprised of rubber and soft foam making for a very comfortable sit for any bottom! I could see this chair being used in a new build school, colour coded to suit the scheme of different departments. That flexibility in adapting the colour not only makes it more desirable, but a lot more commercially viable and adventurous. I can't find a retail price so the chances of me affording it are relatively low, however if you have a scheme that you think these chairs would fit perfectly into then don't hesitate to have a gander at their website.
