Aria is an upholstered and fabric-covered chair with wooden structure and shell.‎This armchair was a demonstrator of a new type of finish – the “(W)” variant.‎ The designer knew that there would be a huge veneered outer surface of the backrest at his disposal.‎ This surface clashed into a contrast with the upholstered layer on the inside.‎ Therefore, he decided on dynamics and also quite “soft” geometry.‎ The saying “form follows function” reflects in the model’s construction – the backrest and the seat board are bent as if they were to wrap around the user.‎ Thereby, both the natural wood pattern and the structure of the upholstery fabric are perfectly exposed.‎ It really depends on the context; the colors and structures of both surfaces can be combined so as to evoke a strong contrast or mild harmony.‎The ARIA family was created as a flagship collection to promote the "W" finish variant (the entire back of the furniture is covered with a large sheet of plywood, displaying the wood pattern, the interior of the furniture is upholstered).‎ The basic armchair was characterized by an interesting body geometry and perfect proportions, emphasized by unusual patterns of upholstery fabrics.‎ The outer side, thanks to a visually uniform, large sheet of plywood, acted as a large picture frame, presenting the work of Nature's genius.‎ The success of the ARIA armchair paved the way for other models from this inspiring collection to come.‎
