jaime hayon: pina for magis

the desire to create a chair in wire for exterior use was the starting point of the piña chair, 
which spanish designer jaime hayon has developed for furnituer manufacturer magis.
the piece combines the natural element of wood, with a wire capitonné structure.
the wire weave pattern which makes up the back of the chair makes the seating unit
seem as if it is inflated.
