We admire the slow, stately pace of a tortoise and envy its long life. For Isaac Piñeiro, from Nadadora design studio, the idea for the Tortuga Lounge Chair stems from a shell that we can withdraw into, immersing ourselves in a good novel or drifting off to sleep… Its simplicity reflects the tranquility of Nadadora’s ethos, although the choice of textiles can add contrasting exuberance.
The latest creation by Sebastian Herkner for Sancal is the functional Vesper Coffee Table. Vesper is German for a cold dinner reflecting the table’s use both as a low occasional table or a dining table.
Valencia city’s Arab heritage inspired PerezOchando to design the contemporary Diwan Chaise Longue. Claudia and Pedro have reduced sinuous curves of the seats and backs to their bare minimum, bringing an air of lightness to the design. The legs’ formal simplicity provides a touch of distinction.
Despite its large dimensions, the Bold Coffee Table connects the space to create fluid and elegant transitions. A sculptural piece that pays homage to the charismatic and casual Memphis style.
The top is characterized by its oversized profile and irregular outline, while three basic geometries (rectangle, circle and triangle) emerge from it, creating a dynamic, visual game as each of them emerges at a different level. These elementary shapes are in fact the legs that appear on the surface, through which they pass.
Sancal’s Totem Stool is a sophisticated bar stool and the first collaboration of Sylvain Willenz with the Spanish firm. A clean design with which its author wanted to escape from the conventional forms of a stool and explore a new design language.
Totem’s sculptural forms are surprising and its graphic silhouette reveals the designer’s talent for illustration, transcending the function of a seat to become a decorative object.
Ionna Vautrin was inspired by a chess set when designing the Pion Table. The Pion is a complete set of pieces. The queens and kings are represented by the dining and conference tables.
Estudihac’s José Manuel Ferrero might be Spanish, but his approach to design is akin to the bespoke tailoring of Mayfair.
His Magnum Dining Chair pays homage to this very British elegance. The gentleman designer has drawn inspiration from the glasses of cognac that members of exclusive London clubs cradle in their hands as they debate politics.
Sancal started out manufacturing classic, French-style chairs. Four decades on, they decided to revisit their origins and the Swedish design studio Note was selected to give the project a fresh, innovative angle. The original piece was classified as a dressing-table chair, but the new Tonella Armchair is enormously versatile.
Sancal is based in Yecla, a wine-growing region in southern Spain. Barrels are commonplace, and the metallic support is reminiscent of their staves
The La Isla Tables, designed by Studio Note, are available in three heights and the tabletops can be round or oval. The bases, shaped like a blade, are a nod to the shape of the benches’ backs.
