"Golondrina" translates to "swallow" in Spanish. This design came to life after a four-year cultural and human journey between the MCF and the Spanish designer Jorge Herrera, separated by thousands of kilometres.
Golondrina is a spacious one-seater offering comfort and cosiness. The refined, solid wooden frame embraces the shell or "cocoon" as a sculpture. Thanks to the distance between the frame and shell, the wooden structure can be used as a handle in case you want to move the Golondrina. Despite the generous dimensions, this open structure provides a dynamic and light appearance.
A back cushion is also available as an additional accessory but is not necessary. To enjoy elegance and luxury at the fullest, Golondrina can be completed with the Golondrina ottoman. This lightweight, voluminous ottoman can be moved to the one-seater or stand on its own to be used as a stool for guests in various situations.
