Portal Chair by Patricia Urquiola for Moroso -  “It’s a portal, an hardware that represents a doorway leading to another location, period of time or dimension. A material instrument that could give mental comfort as well as physical and visual. That can be transported by a 'porter', in the latin ethimology of portarius, 'gate keeper'. That helps you going from one dimension to another.”
