The Huma upholstered chair series takes the form of the rattan version, the open arms create an open invitation to sit, dine, work or relax.
With its round, enveloping shell, Armadillo is a revision of a furniture classic in rattan: the papasan. But this is a radically free and wonderfully postmodern version. Armadillo has the sympathetic shyness of the animal from which it gets its name and the unmistakable signature of the Valencian studio in its silhouette.
This project is born from the wish to recover rattan as a fine material and reclaim Spain?s rich craftsmanship tradition. Oscar Tusquets tries to give a new look to an ancient technique replacing the brackets and bonds traditionally used as connecting elements by the twinning of one cane to the next.
Its structure emerges from a game of tangent lines between its four organic frames and of those with the seat, thus securing stability and at the same turning it almost transparent.
