The symbiosis of culturaltradition, ecological respon-sibility and cutting edgetechnology tunes the traveller in to the special characterof Lanzarote. Tubis emphasizes this to the full. The work of landscapearchitect Cesar Manrique wasdevoted to preserving thetopographical uniqueness of the volcanic island of Lanzarote. Architect Francisco Pérez Marsá designed the airport in line with this tradition too.

Tubis.Sustainable and appealing.

Every location in the world is different; ithas its own identity. Unforgettable impres-sions may be created through the interplay of surroundings, buildings and furniture. Tubis seating elements are convincing dueto their distinct character which does notcompete with existing architecture. On thecontrary: they create an unmistakable identity when combined with building and spatial structures.That is why the durable quality of Tubisisas important as its design. Legs and supporting building beams are finished as clear cylindrical forms in high-quality aluminiumprofile. The graceful die-cast connectingbeams give the horizontal supporting beams an appearance of visual lightness. Front and back legs are mechanicallyconnected to die-cast aluminium latticedspacer rails. The upholstery is mounted onaremovable frame and attached to seat shells in perforated, anticorrosion treated and powder coated sheet steel.Most importantly: all functional elementsand components are fixed in the grooves of the supporting beams in accordance with a coherent assembly principle. This allows side tables furniture, seat shells, armrests or footreststo be disassembled easily and reconfiguredas required. What is more: should single components become unsightly after years of extreme wear and tear, they may be exchanged at reasonable cost.
