These 30 images are 30 portraits, or 30 chairs, depending on how one chooses to observe them. One can send rational information to the brain to recognize a chair through practical competence, or leave it free to search for an intuitive and open association to discover a face. 30 iconic design chairs are transformed into characters with personality and expressiveness that live, speak and breathe in a parallel universe.

Profiles: Italian Architect & Illustrator Federico Babina – “Abstract Stories”
“I am an Italian ( since 1969)
architect and graphic designer (since 1994)
that lives and works in Barcelona (since 2007)
but mostly I’m a curious person (since ever).“
Every day I try to rediscover a way to observe the world as through the eyes of a child. Children are able to have a vision of things totally
uninhibited and without the conditioning of the experience. The children’s drawings are always amazing and beautiful in their spontaneous simplicity and clarity.
I like trying to explain the world I see through different techniques of expression. I like the richness of the language and the diversity of its forms. I do not want to confine me in a prison of a style or shape.
Drawing and illustration are for me one of the ways to recount and photograph the thoughts, feelings and emotions. Every picture has a story and every picture is a witness of a story.
