Pastis
Pastis is a collection of wooden chairs, armchairs and tables built on authenticity, strength and high-quality craftsmanship. Balancing a sturdy construction with elegant aesthetics, Pastis offers a versatile series that emanates personality – for enjoying life, dining, socialising and bringing a sense of warmth and vitality to its surroundings.
Available in a variety of lacquered wood types and colours, Pastis’s durability and comfort makes it suited to many indoor spaces, from dining rooms and kitchens in private homes to cafés and other public environments.
Designed during the very first lockdown, Pastis is an ode to something we lost in those days. The cafe, brasserie, terrasse – that’s what we all missed during that time.
I don’t know if it came from a subconscious loneliness in me, but Pastis is clearly a tribute to moments spent with others, communal spaces.
My challenge was to figure out how to propose not just another chair, but a chair with a strong attitude, in terms of its aesthetic and spirit, and then to suggest an atmosphere in which the chair could thrive and age gracefully.
Here is a chair that will last, age, and change through patina and good use. A timeless, evergreen product, I hope, with no “expiration date” in its aesthetic and construction.
The collection developed during the last two years has been presented for the first time during 3 Days of Design in Copenhagen. and is available worldwide since August 2022.
