The mantis chair is a modern interpretation of an armchair and a homage to traditional crafts and joinery. The steam bent components provide constructive efficiency and aesthetic elegance. Reducing material cross section to the minimum while obtaining strengths and characteristics of the material testify both constructive knowledge and respect for valuable natural ressources. The forms and curves derived from human ergonomics result in a comfortable, exquisit and surprisingly light chair. The shape often compared with wildlife gestures led to the name mantis chair. This specimen made of european oak comes with an upholstery in leather and padding in wool and coconut fibers.
