Stackable chair made entirely of aluminium through a process of laser cut, folded and riveted sheets. Finish powder-coated textured black.
With Lanuda, Riccardo Blumer evolves his design research on seats, moving from the wood of Laleggera (1996) to aluminium. Should Laleggera and Lanuda embody the same principle of essential subtraction it is with Lanuda that this research reaches its extreme limit. The seat takes shape from ten aluminium sheets with a thickness of just 2 mm, which undergo a process of laser cutting and drilling to the maximum possible limit, reducing the surface area to a mini-mum and making the seat, in fact, nude (in Italian “La nuda” means “The nude”).
The result is a stackable chair characterised by a rich and complex design. A special processing of aluminium creates a series of triangulations with structural membranes that are folded and secured by mechanical rivets.
