The circle is one of the purest, simplest geometric forms and over centuries has been used to create harmony and grace in architecture and design. Compasso’s circular back is a unique, eye-catching statement that will animate any room’s interior design. The front edge of the seat is also defined by an arc that visually connects to the back. This element also stiffens the one-piece shell and creates an area for the legs to be connected.

The wood legs connect directly to slots moulded in the plastic shell. The slots also provide rigidity. Connecting bolts are hidden by small covers that are moulded in the same colour as the seat. The chair is shipped with the legs not assembled. The wood and plastic are a nice mix of modern and classical materials. In fact, the whole theme of this piece is that of connecting ancient to modern aesthetics. The back’s form recalls the circular motif present in some ancient Chinese throne chairs. The wood legs are angled to ease stacking and are like the two arms of a drawing compass, the instrument used to create perfectly round circles. Compasso is the Italian word for compass.
