Tour Chair: A Bicycled Inspired Seating from Alves

I know that most of us have experienced riding a bike. We are also familiar of its parts and how it works. Many people own a bike and use them not just to reach different places but also as a form of exercise. Using a bicycle isn’t just good for the health but is also good for the environment as well. But we are not going to feature a bicycle today. We are going to show you a chair that is inspired by the design of the bicycle.

Well-known designer, Rui Alves’ latest design is a chair in which the ideas were taken from the details of a bicycle. The chair cannot and will not hide its roots as we can certainly see that in the style of the armchair. The rest of the chair copies the classic road handlebar using bent wood. Even the seating is designed similar to the seat of the bicycle.

The design of the chair is indeed unique. It has that look that would standout despite its slim design.
