Lorenzo Damiani (2010) often likes to surprise his projects with mechanical innovations or brilliant and playful details. Girella is his convertible tiny armchair with a smooth polyurethane structure and Lycra covering.
The structure has no mechanisms and by simply unfolding it becomes a very large mattress, suitable for playing or resting, while the rolled up version is a tiny armchair designed for children.
