The engineering of the Wedge is more complex than its visual simplicity suggests. With back legs that lean at 70 degrees in contrast to vertical lines at the front, the chair emulates the physicality of sprinters at their starting blocks on a track.
The backrest is a key architectural aspect – cantilevered and supported by thin wooden armrests sculpted to be wider at the front for function and tapered away to as little as possible behind. To achieve the elements of negative space and lightness we wanted, we embedded a steel support in the armrest and backrest.
BRAND HIGHLIGHT
The duo’s work spans architectural projects and interiors, but it is their furniture that caught the eye of Staffan Tollgård and which is available through Tollgard’s London showrooms.Bassam Fellows’ Geometric Series celebrates the sublimity of pure geometry, as championed by the Wiener Werkstätte and the Bauhaus. A hero of the series and a modernist staple, the CB-41 Daybed is meticulously crafted in solid wood and features cushions hand-stitched from butter-soft Scandinavian leather. This is a piece that will age beautifully; destined to become a true future heirloom.The Brutus Chair, launched in Milan in 2020, came to designer Craig Bassam in a dream. Seemingly ‘cut’ rather than ‘built, it expertly marries the Brutalist tendencies of Le Corbusier et al with a contemporary, organic smoothness. A gently curving solid wood frame supports a seat in either Vienna cane or hand-stitched upholstery upon impossibly smooth elliptical legs. A masterpiece of furniture design.Please contact our showrooms if there is a particular piece you are interested in, as we update our displays regularly.
