FLAMINGO
Chair
Flamingo chair with three legs instead of four remind the shape of a flamingo bird, infact the third leg wants to evoke the animal's long neck.
The leg becomes the backrest of the chair passing through a hole in the seat so that its continuity isn't broken and its elongated shape is emphasized.
Also the choice of materials want to emphasize this verticality.
The use of a light wood like hickory for the seat and the front legs and of a dark walnut for the backrest, has been chosen both because they are elegant wood and also to create a strong contrast between the two elements so that the focus is on the vertical one.
