How can solid wood appear almost like a single stroke of a pencil?
The answer is TALLA – a new KAPLAN 1934 chair designed by Václav Mlynář. Organic lines in solid oak flow seamlessly through the entire structure, giving this traditional material a surprisingly light and contemporary expression.
Behind its apparent simplicity lies precision. From CNC machining to hand finishing, TALLA is made at the KAPLAN 1934 factory in Orličky, where contemporary design meets more than ninety years of experience with solid wood.
At Designblok 2026, an installation by MONUMENT Office reveals the story behind its creation. Slow-motion projections capture the journey from raw timber to finished chair, bringing to light details that would normally remain hidden.
