The chair has been designed to be easily transported and stored thanks to its tubular lightweight frame – a painted and galvanized steel rod – that holds the cushions. When frame and cushions are separated the volume decreases considerably, reducing the packaging needed. To enhance its relaxation capacity, the lounge chair can be completed with a comfortable pouf/footrest, which can also be used as an occasional chair.
