Bitta
Yet another shape change for this top-class convertible, designed by Denis Santachiara (2019), whose profile calls to mind a bollard-a nod to the world of seafaring.
Designed to be used as a comfortable seat, Bitta houses a cosy inflatable single bed featuring an elettrically-powered inflating/deflating system.
