Designed with the French designer's unmistakable postmodern touch, the stools combine geometric rigor and formal irony in a synthesis that challenges the conventions of traditional furniture.

Made entirely of anthracite gray painted metal, they feature a minimalist structure with a perforated square seat and four square-section legs. The distinctive detail is the curved half-moon backrest, a strong graphic element that breaks up the orthogonality of the design and also serves as a support for the back.

The composition is completed by tubular chrome-plated metal footrests, fixed to the sides, adding an industrial touch to the design.
