Balanus transfers the topic of the aggregation from the Nature to the Design, introducing itself like a “colony of seats” of various dimensions, such to emphasize the likeness with the inspiring element: the Barnacle (Balanus Amphitrite), a crustacean with a calcareous body of conical shape which lives in conspicuous colonies on surfaces between the level of high and low tide. This system of seats is ideal for gardens of hotel and club, for a temporary rest. Material: polyethylene. ……………………………………………………. Balanus trasferisce il tema dell’aggregazione dalla Natura al Design, presentandosi come una “colonia di sedute” di diverse dimensioni, enfatizzando la somiglianza con l’elemento a cui si ispira: il Balano (Balanus Amphitrite), un crostaceo dal corpo calcareo di forma conica che vive in cospicui gruppi su superfici site tra il livello di alta e bassa marea. Questo sistema di sedute è ideale per giardini di hotel, di locali, per una sosta temporanea. Materiale: polietilene.
