We are pleased to announce that our “X” chair design is also now on display at Opera Gallery in the main design district of New York.

Inspiration:

The “X” Chair, as the name implies is an interpretive form derived from the letter “X” if it were to loop and complete itself. The objective was to design a chair that is playful, whimsical, and with a personality —- seemingly realized from the realm of the imaginary world. It had to be suggestive, inviting, and informal — where a person, approaching the chair, would feel comfortable to drop their “guards”, relax into the chair and slip into her or her own dream world — away from the daily “grind”.

“There are moments when we wish to be lost in our happy place, to be a child again … uninhibited, imaginative, wonderful. It is often a beloved object that transports us there – a blanket, a sweater, —- a chair”.

To be consistent with the theme, the chair had to be “light” and yet have structurally integrity. Carbon fibre was a logical choice. The chair can be finished in naked carbon fibre with a clear coat, or it can be upholstered in leather or fabric.

Materials:

Carbon fiber and epoxy
