About The Entry

Can a chair begin with emotion before function? The Axel Chair embraces this idea, inspired by the fluidity and grace of figure skating. Its design captures the sweeping arcs and dynamic twists of a skater mid-leap, freezing a moment of rhythmic flow. As it rests in a space, the chair enlivens its surroundings with a quiet balance of dynamism and stillness.
