Story
A design built on tension
The sprung design makes Alexa appear about to come alive, and the chair takes its cue from this perception of tension. Umberto Asnago designed it in 2018.
Ash, leather and bronze
The frame is solid ash wood and the metal parts are painted in a bronze colour with natural effect. The seat and backrest are covered in saddle leather or leather, or the seat alone in fabric.
