The name BRIA comes from the word “equilibrio” which means balance in Spanish. The self-balancing, gentle motion of BRIA allows you to forget for a moment about everything else. It gives you some time to pause, relax, and enjoy the present. While its motion is one of the main reasons for its name, it is not the only one. BRIA wants to balance contrasting materials as well. It uses the hardness and roughness of metal with the softness and lightness of fabric. It is made with a powdercoated steel structure and an oversized plush cording fiber that is woven within the frame.
