I'm really liking the playful element found in the Acciaio Series. A fun and fresh furniture collection, its minimalist designs are offset by interesting materials and colorful accents.
Designed by American-born, Netherlands-based designer, the Acciaio Series will be debuted in the Rossignoli Bicycle shop during the Salone Furniture Fair in Milan, Italy.
Comprised of three lightweight pieces (dining chair, lounge chair and stool), the Acciaio Series was inspired by classic racing bicycles. In fact, it even features frames made out of specialized, tapered steel bicycle tubes. The seats themselves are made out of a perforated leather material, giving the entire Acciaio Series both texture and an overall luxurious feel, making the collection perfect for any home.
