FLEXUS is the iconic Alias upholstered collection, designed by architect and designer Paolo Rizzatto.
Peculiar to this armchair are the round holes in the high back that lighten the perception of bulk and make the piece ideal to be placed in the centre of a room. The proportions of the seat are noteworthy: as comfortable as upholstery but with the height of a chair.
