ANATOMY OF A CHAIR

|VISI
Founders of local furniture brand PEDERSEN LENNARD, Luke Pedersen and James Lennard, talk us through the inspiration and design process behind their new TULBAGH CHAIR.
* THE IDEA A client came to us with a request for an all-timber chair. It was something we've wanted to add to our offering for a long time, so this was a great opportunity. For inspiration, we paged through the Cape country furniture books that have been on the studio shelves for years.
A key part of the design process was a trip to the Tulbagh region to get acquainted with a significant piece of South African furniture history. Compared to traditional Cape country furniture, with its ornate European influences, the Tulbagh chair is simpler in style. It fits perfectly into our Pedersen + Lennard aesthetic, and is a reflection of our commitment to considered, functional and timeless design.
