Feature: Waft chair

The world of furniture is evolving daily. Furniture making today has to create things that are only possible today. Frankly speaking, we’re no longer interested in furniture that can be made using the technology from the 1950s. There are of course many things we can learn from the Scandinavian furniture of the 1950s and the Shaker Furniture that preceded it, and their appeal will certainly never die. We’re interested in the process of doing further research that is built on top of what has already been done, just as in scientific research.

The new chair WAFT from Arti, for example, closes in on an ultimate 3D form through an elaborate prefabrication process in which a certain degree of form and cuts are made before placing the single molded plywood (bending any part of the surface in only 2 dimensions, but resulting in a combined 3 dimensional surface) into the mold. We completed the chair in a development process that took over two years involving such initiatives as combining the plywood with a new mesh material containing natural materials. It’s not merely an industrial product that gives consideration to streamlined production, but the most modern, progressive furniture that we could conceive combining a refinement realized thanks to a little extra effort and manual work and sense of luxury that exudes from such work.
