I designed a chair-object pursuing the image and memory of an architecture, strong and transparent.
I was searching a "presence", real and magic at the same time, appearing and vanishing, tantalizingly close or hazily distant like the memory of a faraway echo.
I wanted a physical object generated by light.
The equivalence of solid and void given by the alternating of the steel tubing has defined a texture which I used to create the frame structure.
That's how this object has been conseived: the image is its structure and the structure its image.
