We are not new to the brand Motoart, after all they have given us a great range and innovation in furniture by putting vintage aviation parts together to form fixtures for our homes and offices. We loved the B-52 Stratofortress ejectore seat office chair that they came up with last year.
And now, as the perfect start to the New Year, the same house has designed a limited-edition of C-130 Navigators Chair for all those who do not settle for anything but the best. To our pleasant surprise, the new chairs are more ergonomic in nature allowing the user to incline the backrest up and down for a more comfortable sitting.

Motoart is perhaps the one and only organisation to utilize vintage aviation parts into cool looking furniture for both home as well as office. And they have to thank LA based designer Giancarlo De Astis for his creativity and zest to pick airplane parts dumped in Arizona junkyards and convert them into elegant fixtures.
You will be surprised to what an artistic brush can do to discarded flaps, wings, canopies, turbines and other aircraft parts. Well, Astis can give them a second life in the form of desks, tables, credenzas, cabinets and lamps. Some of his most appreciated creations include the Latro Primo desk, the Lo Squalo club chair and the Solo conference table.
