chair family
Starting point
Development of a product family based on material-driven requirements.
Challenge
Combining sustainability, function and industrial manufacturing.
Approach
Using material logic as the foundation for form, structure and differentiation.
Result
Flexible, sustainable, and industrially realisable product solutions.
A chair series whose character is inseparable from its material. Moulded felt is inherently soft – easily shaped under heat and pressure, soft to the touch like unpressed natural wool felt. This softness is expressed throughout: in the plasticity of the seat shell, in the flow of its contours.
The material is not the carrier of form but its source – design language, proportions and differentiation derive directly from the inner logic of the material. The result is a series with an unmistakable identity that could not have been achieved in any other material.
