Fugue Infinity Chairs
THE DOUGLAS&CO | Fugue Range | The light colour, busy longitudinal grain and great structural properties of spruce together with the ready availability of chunky sections and beams, suggested a solid table frame with disconcertingly light and elegant MDF table top and coopered chair backs and scalloped seats. The chair backs and seats are all as close to identical as we can get with a hand-shaped product, each seat base and legs differing. The table top serves as a horizon line, beneath which there is infinite possibility. In the name of the furniture, “infinity” represents endless options regarding the underside of the chairs.
The four fugue infinity chair names: Z, X, =, IV
DESIGNER STUART DOUGLAS INSPIRED BY | Wanting to use spruce, a softwood, evergreen, that is strong and light with beautiful colour and grain. Moreover, he wanted to play with the creative process of design and manufacture: to conjure up a sense of uniformity, a suite, that was riddled with differentiation. He wanted to capture a certain irony: how one draws and then makes and never the two meet with absolute precision. He wanted the table top to be the plane of dislocation.
MATERIALS USED | FSC certified timber and Egger MDF (extremely low urea formaldehyde content). The spruce is finished with a white beeswax blend and the MDF is finished with water-based zero-VOC enamel.
