Second-life Chair BIRD Purple Hallingdal fabric CAPPELLINI

Designed by Tom Dixon in the early 1990s, the Bird is a rocking chaise longue whose organic silhouette evokes the wings of a bird in full flight. Its generous curves and clean lines make it both an exceptional seat and a true interior sculpture, as striking from a distance as it is comfortable once you settle into it. Its structure of solid fir, metal and high-density wood panels is covered with multi-density polyurethane foam padding, designed to provide optimal support in a reclined position. The cover, fully removable, is available in fabric or leather depending on the collection. Carefully balanced, the Bird encourages a gentle rocking motion that naturally follows the rhythm of the body.Produced by Cappellini, an Italian house founded in 1946 and a pioneer of international contemporary design, the Bird is part of a collection that has always combined formal rigour with innovation. Available in a wide range of colours, it fits as naturally into a private living room as it does in a reception area or a design hotel. A timeless piece, now out of production, that design enthusiasts eagerly seek out on the secondary market.
