Silla BKF o silla "mariposa", grupo Austral, 1938

Posiblemente la silla más famosa del diseño argentino. Diseñada en 1938 por los integrantes del grupo Austral, toma su nombre de las iniciales de los tres arquitectos que fundaron el grupo: el catalán Antonio Bonet y los argentinos Juan Kurchan y Jorge Ferrai-Hardoy.

Recientemente se ha reinterpretado en hormigón, como pieza de mobiliario urbano.
