This chair features a single body of seat and backrest. Four sockets protrude to fasten the four separately
moulded legs. The legs are cylindrical because this shape assures a more snug fi t between leg and
socket. The base of the seat has a double-perimeter structure: the internal structure and cross element
fi rmly connect the four cylindrical legs; the three external side fl aps strengthen the surface of the seat.
The gentle, concave curve of the backrest and the two lateral fl aps meet ergonomic needs as well as making
the chair more solid. Besides this, the back legs are extended and total around a third of the chair's height.
They are inserted inside the reinforcement strip at the rear of the backrest. They also perform as a prop to
control the inclination. The seat and backrest surface has a curvy, wraparound edge.
