The Dining Chair

An essential piece for a luxurious dining experience, crafted with mother nature’s best interest in mind. Design studio Space Copenhagen and Mater team up with a shared mission for making a sustainable design with a timeless Scandinavian aesthetic in the Dining Chair from Mater. Space Copenhagen approaches this mission with what they call Poetic Modernism. An approach that takes opposite motifs like classic and modern and fusing them to create multi-dimensional pieces like this one. To give shape to their ideas, Space Copenhagen uses wood that’s been FSC-certified to protect its locally harvested ecosystem. The wood is artfully crafted in fluid contours and soft shapes that look just as good as they feel. Nothing quite matches the feel of soft leather. With leather processed under the strictest ethical requirements, fine upholstery is applied to the chair to give your body a gentle, embracing surface.

Founded in 2006 by Henrik Marstrand, Mater (Latin for “mother”) is a Danish lighting and furniture brand with a highly ethical approach to design. As a way to improve the environmental and social impacts of production, Mater sums up their company mission in three words: Design, craftsmanship and ethics. Using responsibly sourced materials to create their timeless designs, Mater not only strives to preserve traditional techniques, but takes care to create a cooperative environment between designers and artisans both in Denmark and abroad.
