Seating people, that’s who we are, it’s what we do.That’s what we’ve been doing for over 40 years. The chair and sitting is something we’ve given a lot of thought to.Little wonder since sitting in a chair, that relatively unnatural position for the human frame, can be so many things: passive, concentrated, active, relaxed, alert, functional, aesthetic, waiting, daydreaming and so on.As an object, a chair can be anything from a sculpture to a highly technical machine, as the many quotations here collected can illustrate.

We don’t want to change the world.The people sitting daily in our products do that.We just make chairs.

LUXYseating people

Seating people, è quel che siamo, quel che noi facciamo.E lo facciamo da oltre 40 anni. La sedia e l’atto di sedere è qualcosa a cui abbiamo dedicato molte riflessioni.Poco mistero, visto che il sedersi su una sedia, quell’innaturale posizione per il corpo umano, può essere così tante cose: passiva, concentrata, attiva, rilassata, attenta, funzionale, estetica, attesa, distratta e così via.In quanto oggetto, una sedia può essere una scultura fino ad una complicata macchina tecnica, come testimoniano le tante citazioni qui raccolte.

Noi non vogliamo cambiare il mondo.Quello lo fanno ogni giorno le persone che si siedono sui nostri prodotti.Noi facciamo le sedie.
