Leda
by BD Barcelona

A chair can be used even to sit on, but only on one condition: That we sit uncomfortably.

The BD designers manufactured the Leda sculpture-armchair and the Leda sculpture-table that were designed by Salvador Dali in his "Femme à tête de roses" (1935).

The idea was not to create functional furniture, but to embody art in three-dimensional space.

Graphic design and illustration increasingly draw inspiration from nature. While some efforts genuinely promote environmental awareness, others engage in greenwashing, using nature-inspired aesthetics to falsely appear eco-friendly.
