Note:
Starting with the traditional bar chair the design was adapted to take advantage of the latest technological developments. Wing was the first project design team Ramos & Bassols worked on for Spanish manufacturer Actiu. Ramos & Bassols develop their designs using a combination of real life and computer-generated 3D models. Made from 100% recyclable polypropylene with 30% fiberglass by single-shot air injection which results in a reduction in weight (4 kg). The basic stackable monobloc chair is available with an optional polyurethane or fabric padded seat. Wing won the IF Design award 2015 and the Red Dot Award 2015.
