Black Steel
Black Steel is a set of dining table and chairs inspired by the form of a spider. The supporting frames are made of white steel, shaped by CNC milling or mold casting, and show simple lines and a stable structure. The seat surface, backrest and tabletop are made of plastic formed by injection molding. Steel and plastic create a clear contrast of color and material. The backrest follows the shape of the human back and helps support a correct posture for dining and reading. All parts can be disassembled quickly and stacked for transport.
