Mattiazzi

The design for the FACILE came about as a result of our quest to build a bridge between the product ranges in the Mattiazzi collection.

MEDICI is conceived as a low chair with a comfortably reclined posture. Its generous dimension gives the chair an embracing confidence.

The smooth geometry that joins the backrest, armrests and legs is the formal language of injection—molded plastic, and it’s surprising to see in wood.

The collection Forcina by Leon Ransmeier comprises a chair, an armchair, and a stool with a steel frame, a wooden seat, and a backrest. The collection is rounded off with a table.

Primo epitomizes the archetypal chair. Its design comprises of only the most basic elements —four legs, seat and backrest—.

This robust yet simple and refined furniture family was thought to be used in cafès and restaurants, which is why it offers great flexibility - both in use and in the variations proposed.

"The expression of craftsmanship here lies in the careful execution, the choice of wood, the finish, the perfection.

TRONCO's character is formed from solid strips of wood in what appears as very elementary construction, yet its simplicity is the result of iterative experimentation and a high regard for material

The gently carved wooden pieces are held in place by bent metal rods - while wood remains the main actor, the metal parts play a fundamental role in the construction.

<<We designed an object in plain wood but not in regular plain wood, the quality of the wood literally makes the object, like the best piece of meat would make the refinement of a dish.>&g

DOPO is the second collection designed by Studio OE for Mattiazzi.

"If you see it from the side, you could say that the frame is almost typographic, like a letter. The lines offabric cord are also very graphic; yet these lines distort as the body sits down.

"The sustainable approach was to separate the materials and specify the components: wood, recycled feathers and fabric. Then I asked myself what comfort was, a backrest and a seat to sink into.

The concept and charm is a canvas sling suspended from a frame: the most simple construction and a surprisingly comfortable seating experience.

Studio OE aimed to create a mobile extension of architecture that would seamlessly blend into the living space and that invites to define its use according to individual needs.
