SOL & SOMBRA – a dialogue in contrast

Like sun and shadow, SOL and SOMBRA were designed as a deliberate pair, two chairs that share a common foundation, yet express distinct identities. Rather than merging different qualities into one, they are intentionally separate: SOL is compact and agile, while SOMBRA is more generous and relaxed.

Both chairs are crafted from solid ash, a material that not only ensures longevity but also evokes certain historical references. The vertically oriented legs and strictly horizontal armrests create a sense of space around the sitter, offering a calm, open presence. Details such as the slightly tapered foot ends and the carved-out armrests enhance the sense of craftsmanship in both designs.

SOL has a compact footprint and offers a low yet active seating posture. Its plywood seat and backrest are designed to interlock, allowing the backrest to flex freely and comfortably.

SOMBRA is wider, softer, and more classic in its design. It features an upholstered seat and backrest cushion, with broad armrests that provide a convenient surface for resting a phone, book, or drink.
