Description

This model draws inspiration from the ceramic promenades of Ipanema – the celebrated beach in Rio de Janeiro— specifically from the curved design by Roberto Burle Marx, the great Brazilian architect, world-renowned for his landscape designs. Designer Didier Gomez also draws inspiration from Oscar Niemeyer, one of the most celebrated Brazilian architects and designers. Niemeyer’s organic bean shape can be seen in several of his designs, integrated into his numerous swimming pools and the roof of his Casa das Canoas. With their voluminous proportions, the design of these seats is elegant, yet curvaceous. Ideal for transforming an interior.
