Stockholm based design studio Färg & Blanche has created the Emily chair for Swedish furniture company Gärsnäs. The small quilted chair was created as an addition to their larger Emma armchair.
Emily is our Emma easy chair’s little sister. Just like siblings, they are similar but still different. The family likeness can be seen in the needlework: they are both upholstered, but differently pat- terned.
The smaller frame carries on the distinctive needlework, and upholstered arms that wrap around the frame. The Emily chair comes fully upholstered in fabric or leather, tailored with backrest perforations, while the legs are crafted out of solid ash.
The needlework is a function which also creates a powerful idiom. The special technique employed is based on a classical craft, while at the same time occupying the leading edge of technology.
