ELICA CHAIR WITH UPHOLSTERED SEAT

DESIGN: Pavel Kaplan

TODO Furniture of the Year 2021

Nomination EDIDA 2021

Description

Design židle Elica kombinuje klasickou konstrukci s organickými křivkami. Šikmo posazené nohy působí lehce, aniž by přišly o pevnost masivu. Plynulá napojení noh do lubu i opěradla dál zvyšují tuhost konstrukce. Váha židle přitom ale zůstává nečekaně nízká. Spojení pevného a lehkého z ní dělá součást domova na generace.

Precise joints

Thanks to the traditional technique based on glued mortise-and-tenon joints the chair remains firm after decades of use. It does not contain any metal joint.

For long lunches

Upholstered seat and ergonomic backrest ensure agreeable sitting. By its nature, the chair is comfortable, no matter how many hours you sit on it.

Before they grow up

The Elica chair has not sharp edges. This imparts the chair a safe character, especially for families with small children and enhances ergonomics of sitting.

Only one hand

Oak version weights only 4 kg. It is unexpectedly lightweight and very easy to reposition.

Material

Walnut

Beech has the least distinctive pattern of all our wood species. Its surface is therefore perfectly smooth. It has a light yellow to pinkish-brown colour which will darken slightly over time. We buy beech logs directly from the surrounding forests in the Eagle Mountains.

Beech from the Eagle Mountains often contains a dark core and small knots which is well distinguishable from the lighter wood. In our production we choose wood with beautiful dark grain. This creates a unique pattern and decorative appearance of products made of heart beech.

Oak furniture is characterized by a more distinctive pattern. The texture of the wood can be felt on the surface. It has a yellow-brown colour with a hint of golden colour. We select oak wood in Czech certified forests within 150 km from the Eagle Mountains.

American walnut is halfway between beech and oak in terms of its distinctive grain. The wood texture is less obvious by touch. It is the darkest of our three wood species. It is light brown to blackish brown in colour and will lighten slightly over time. We import this precious American walnut directly from North America.

Surface finishing

Oil

Coating

Olej dokonale zachová autentický pocit přírodního povrchu dřeva. Na pohled i na pohmat. Oproti laku je méně odolný vůči rozlitému červenému vínu, dětskému jídlu nebo horkým nápojům a vyžaduje pravidelnou údržbu. V případě nehody ale desku ošetřenou olejem snadno opravíte i v domácích podmínkách.

Matný lak je nejodolnější povrchová ochrana, kterou může dřevěný povrch mít. Snadno odolá i rozlitému vínu, dětskému jídlu nebo horké kávě. A nevyžaduje téměř žádnou údržbu. Oproti oleji je pocit z přírodního materiálu při dotyku méně patrný, přesto zůstává povrch velice příjemný a přirozený.
