The Armchair

As designer and architect Patricia Urquiola so eloquently implies, the armchair must simultaneously be pleasing on the eye and comfortable to sit in. The reigning design characteristics of the armchair are simple: a medium-height backrest that offers cushioned support and substantial armrests that give stability and comfort. Of course, the chair's upholstery, its angles and its cushioning are all important factors to consider.

The Bergere Chair

A wooden frame around the backrest, cushioned armrests and cabriole legs are all characteristic of this chair’s French origins. Pronounced “ber-jair”, the chair’s name means “shepherdess”. This style offers a classic touch, yet is surprisingly comfortable, making it a lovely addition in a home that references traditional design.

Fragment

A sculpted timber block in the tradition of Brâncusi which in turn takes us back to ancient cultures of Africa, of a graphic, geometric language that is evident in tribal art and sculpture.

Irrational

With the same four flat planes as the rational, the same dimensions, the same composition, Irrational takes on a completely different persona. The table plays on light, with the concept of maximum / minimum, simple and complex.
