I love Magis stuff, and these chairs – ok, only the ‘Pipe’ – are wicked!
I cant help but think of barberosgerby’s de la warr pavilion chair when I look at pipe…
Very close to the interrogation chair used for morphieus in the first part of the movie Matrix!.
Hate not to jump into the super normal debate – as it’s a corner to fight….
….but on a base level I think these are actually quite ugly – really computery and look a bit like over cooked spaghetti.
yeah, thats why the name is tratorria…
