Developed within the Puntofilipino LAB, the piece approaches the seat from an architectural logic, constructed from planes, tensions, and spatial relationships rather than conventional ergonomics.
Its origin lies in the idea of protection.
A reference to the construction of the samurai suit, understood not as an ornament, but as a system of rigid layers that organize and position the body.
The chair is composed of precisely folded metallic planes, generating a contained and complex geometry. Each face acts as a structural element, defining support, boundary, and direction.
The form is articulated through intersections, cuts, and displacements that introduce depth.
The void takes center stage through cavities and shadow zones that are an active part of the piece.
The relationship with the body is direct and conscious.
The act of sitting involves occupying a structure that proposes a defined posture, activating the perception of one's own body in space.
The material reinforces this condition.
The metal, precisely worked, combines matte and reflective surfaces that interact with light in a variable way. The piece changes depending on the viewpoint, alternating between a compact reading and a lighter, more fragmented one.
This duality—heaviness and lightness, density and openness—defines its character.
Armure is integrated into the Sempiterno collection as a piece of material research, conceived from editing and attention to detail.
Your presence establishes a direct relationship with the space, close to the architectural scale.
Form, light, and matter are articulated in an object that activates both use and contemplation.
