    Silicone is the only material in which Ciffo works. First molded by air and then filled with elastic polyurethane foam, each piece is an experiment. By taking out all natural structural elements and substituting the body shell with air, the chair is transformed into an air chamber that, once inflated, takes on a new shape.
