R30 is the result of the consistent reduction to detachable connections.
Delicate runners made of bent ten millimeter round steel form the silhouette of a chair in combination with tinted,
three-dimensionally shaped acrylic glass seating surfaces.
The transparency provides a view of the milled aluminum clamp connection that joins all parts together for a precise fit and forms the technical and visual focal point of the design. Bends in the runners located within the connection provide necessary stability.
An ergonomic knob invites use and allows the backrest to be adjusted, with adjustability alongside the light spring action of the steel for optimum seating comfort.
A black, high-gloss powder coating gives the design, in contrast to the material conspicuousness, an understated elegance and modest matter-of-factness.
