R30 is the result of the consistent reduction to detachable connections.
Filigree runners made of bent ten millimeter round steel in combination with a seat made of precisely beveled perforated sheet metal result in a shadowy, almost two-dimensional chair with strong technical characteristics.
This much more robust version of R30 is suitable for use indoors as well as outdoors.
The perforation of the seat surfaces reveals the milled aluminum clamp connection that joins all the parts together for a perfect fit. Bends in the runners located within the connection provide the 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 optimal seating comfort.
The black high-gloss powder coating breaks with the technical feel of the design and gives the chair an understated elegance. In contrast, the bold red color scheme emphasizes the technical side of the design and makes the chair a real eye-catcher.
