Consisting of a table, chair, desk, and a multipurpose shelf, the Alpina Collection #01 Series is the first round of designs from the brand-new, Buenos Aires-based design studio, RIES. The four pieces were designed to relate to the spaces they’re in with their slim, angular lines, “not as volumes but rather as a set of vectors and planes in the air.”
The pieces are constructed out of solid square steel rods that are connected in such a way that geometric shapes are formed in the negative spaces. To finish the pieces off, other materials, like polished copper, plywood, aqua green Formic, and leather were used.

Stunning chair, but is it comfortable? With a dead flat seat and no back to speak of, I just imagine my poor spine against that piece of square stock steel…

Elegant! Are the rugs painted?
