The
Quinta ( "fifth") chair is nothing more than a slender steel-rod frame supporting two bent perforated sheet-metal components , the seat and the back.
"I designed another chair relyng totally on my control of it appearance. Sure, people use their eyes, too, when they sit in.
While the architect will be
pleased to consider the essential and spare desing and the continuous discovery of the infinite magic evoked by the simplest materials."
