The Möbius strip is a fascinating geometric surface, with only a single side, which represents an unending loop of possibility and discovery. It is this characteristic that Luis Pereira Miguel Architects presents in the United Colors for Benetton Chair, designed to honor Luciano Benetton as part of Art on Chairs. The chair is a plywood construction, its frame derived from the Möbius strip folded upon itself and the seat a colorful Macramé of red, green, blue, and yellow. The hand-woven seat highlights the origins of the company, as well as exudes the elegance and vibrant creativity of the brand.
