It comes in three colorway options: black, green, and beige. The seat is shaped like a square and has rounded openings at the base which widen closer to the ground. Aguirre notes, "The collection aims to bring the tranquillity and beauty of the outdoors into your living spaces, creating a sanctuary where natural forms and contemporary design coexist. The designs are sculptural yet functional, offering aesthetic pleasure and practical use."
