Arte Lounge Chair Designer Rudi Merz uses the subtle details of the Arte Lounge Chair to exemplify his unparalleled understanding of art in everyday environments. From the open angles of the frame to the slats of the seat and backrest, to the luxurious cushions, the Arte Lounge Chair exudes quiet charm and dreamy artistry.

Konstruktio Bench Through the Konstruktio Bench the Scandinavian concept of moderation and balance are not only embraced but epitomized, mixing it with Nikari’s own philosophy of nature first. The sharp edges and distinct angles are crafted using the oiled birch, ash, or oak that is often featured in Nikari’s designs giving the composition of the Konstruktio Bench a sleek and irresistible sculptural romance that allows it to fit right into the forest from which the materials were harvested.

April Tables As part of the 12 Designs For Nature series, the April Tables stand as homage to Nikari’s most beloved mission: maintain a beautiful, balanced interaction between our natural home and the spaces we create. Designed by Alfredo Häberli, the April Tables come in three heights and showcase an enchanting contrast between the crisp lines of the tabletop and the organic, luxurious curves of the base.
