Arthur Casas
Brazil
From the object to the landscape, inside out, the creative process of studio arthur casas is intimately connected to a horizontal scale, where the main concern is the dialogue in the conception of programs that can be as diverse as a chair or an entire neighborhood, influenced by a spirit both modernist and contemporary that is brazilian but also cosmopolitan. Since 1999, the team of designers, architects and urbanists works from são paulo and ny, and has built in several cities worldwide such as tokyo, paris, rio de janeiro, ny and são paulo, creating a vocabulary that is recognized and published internationally.

Chair
The search for a complexity synthesized in a few lines was the main inspiration for Max Chair. With clean design and precise lines, this piece is a response to a structural challenge with a combination of materials. The light and slender fiberglass shell rests over four metallic support joints, while locked at the base (with axes that cross each other in an X shape), with Sucupira wood covering the feet. Its seat and backrest are part of the same volume, covered in natural Solana leather, with many studies on ergonomy to find a proper curvature and compact visuals.
