Swedish designer Jangir Maddadi
unveiled an elegant furniture duo, professionally marking the beginning
of 2014 at Stockholm. The Captain Chair and Grace Collection exudes
refinement and glorious simplicity.
Nature has a charming way of
communicating. How would you interpret waves forming stone, or how trees
reaches for the skies? In time, everything that surrounds us is formed
and forever changed by it’s touch. Grace is the answer.
Manufactured by Swedish Yacht-builders, solid teak meets a unique
pattern carefully carved into the tabletop. Its geometrical, almost
futuristic, legs reminds us of the never ending relationship between
human and nature. The Grace collection comes in two tabletop sizes and
two set of legs. The straight leg is adjustable in height.
The curved back and high armrests of the Captain Chair
relieve shoulders and arms of any strain. Its wide seat makes it easy
to find a comfortable position. Or five. Captain’s main body is composed
of an antibacterial surface ABS plastic. Genuine leather upholstered
version is available on request. The challenging design process was
captured by the developers in the following statement: “It took us
two years to create something so simple – yet fascinating – when all we
had to do was to sit and feel. We created Captain for people that sits
down all day, in all positions: meetings that never end, hotel lobbies
and coffee shops with that perfect espresso“. [Photos and information provided via e-mail by Jangir Maddadi Design Bureau ]
