A seat with tropical bird colors

Hello design lovers! The summer is coming, the days get longer and encourage us to spend more time in our garden or on our terrace. The outdoor spaces are of great interest for many designers and in the next posts I will show you different furnishings from the original design.
As first character I chose Fedro, a seat with unusual shape, designed by Milanese designer Lorenza Bozzoli.
The ergonomic structure rests on the ground on two thin skates that allow an oscillating movement and is equipped with a cushion for the head for relaxing moments. The lining is in dedon fiber and the different colors are characterized by bright and cheerful tonalities and their names, Flamingo, Colibri and Quetzal, reminiscent of tropical birds. Fedro
is able to furnish your outdoor space in an unconventional and funny way and will never go unnoticed.

Buongiorno design lovers! La bella stagione sta per arrivare, le giornate si allungano e ci invogliano a trascorrere maggior tempo nel nostro giardino o sul nostro terrazzo. Gli spazi outdoor sono oggetto di grande interesse per molti designer e nei prossimi post vi mostrerò diversi complementi d'arredo dal design originale.
Come primo protagonista ho scelto Fedro, una seduta dalla linea insolita, progettata dalla designer milanese Lorenza Bozzoli.
