    Our Dining Chair has instant presence, this is an unapologetically brawny chair. But despite its heft, the Dining Chair has been designed for comfort and makes an enjoyable seat for long and loose dinners. Such refined brutality is typical of Paulsen’s work. As is a love of pine; a material he describes as ‘psychedelic’ because of its lively natural grain. It is best enjoyed over large surface areas, says Paulsen – a theory put into practice here.

    The Dining Chair is an essential, hardworking design made from solid Finnish pine.

    Material Characteristics

    Pine gets better with age. The colours mature to a deeper palette. The heartwood and sapwood age at different speeds and bring out the natural patterns of the grains. After a few years, pine will settle into a rich and complex honey tone
     
    Pine is a soft wood and will get dents and bruises over the years. But don’t think of them as blemishes or flaws. Embrace them. They’re evidence of life lived and furniture loved. Pine isn’t life-proof. It’s proof of life.
     
    All our products are locally made by select Finnish makers and specialists.

    Every pine tree is harvested from sustainably managed Finnish forests. The wood is hand-selected of the highest quality and each piece has its own unique colours and grain patterns.

    The Designer

    Fredrik Paulsen

    Swedish designer Fredrik Paulsen challenges the ‘precious’ in design and has a particular love of inexpensive and accessible materials. His much-celebrated objects and installations are escapist, accessible, and reflect a playful counterculture. Besides the irreverence, Paulsen is a highly skilled maker of forms who returns to the chair typology again and again in pursuit of design perfection.
