marco sousa santos, director of branca lisboa studio, unveils the viva chair taking shape as a simple, yet bold and playful seat design. drawing influence from popular kitchen chairs found in many portuguese households, the piece is made from sturdy ash wood painted in vibrant tones to generate a fun pop of color around any table.
