Nido, Spanish for nest, means home to a number of species and inspired Rafa García to create this small armchair. The seat or “nest” is supported by a hand-crafted ash wood frame. The upper part provides “branches” into which a comfortable seat is fixed. The upholstery is available in two versions: a soft, loose version with a zip that makes it easy to remove the fabric on the seating area, or a tight, fixed version.
The back and sides of the upholstered area are tailored to show off the chair’s lines whereas the seating area is soft and cozy. As the chair has a zip or piping to separate the seat from the back and sides, it is possible to choose two different fabrics.
When shopping for new furniture, it helps to know what to look for to ensure you’re buying a sustainable product. According to a Nielsen survey, 63 per cent of Asia-Pacific respondents check a product’s packaging to ensure a brand is committed to positive social and environmental impact. Evidence of third-party certification is the best way to check the sustainability credentials of a product. Read more about GECA's criteria for furniture in our info sheet.
