Modello 09
Brazilian Modernism and Tropicalismo in a geometric body. With straight lines and congruous construction, Modello 09 holds a suspension design that creates an illusionary loop connecting seat, legs, back and arms in a distinctive manner. Built in solid Burmese hardwood teak, brass and cane webbing, the manufacturing process uniquely embraces marks and bruises as badges of honor of natural materials.
