    The Lucio Chair is an icon of Brazilian design, made with a solid wood structure, originally Rosewood, and a flat cane seat. The backrest is sculpted with anatomical design and turned feet. Sergio Rodrigues designed this piece in 1956 in honor of Lucio Costa, the great Brazilian architect and urban planner. This set is composed of eight chairs.

    Best known for his plan for Brasília, Lucio Costa was one of the architects responsible for the project that became the most significant landmark of modern architecture in Brazil: the MEC (Ministry of Education and Culture) building in Rio de Janeiro, inaugurated in 1943. The construction presented a Modern architecture of Brazilian industry.

    Costa once said that Rodrigues could "superimpose modern furniture elements on the Brazilian houses of our ancestors." He was the first to see the presence of this Brazilian essence character in the designer's work. Rodrigues worked well with wood and cane, which he considered as the Brazilian essential feedstock.
