Arkena is an armchair designed to welcome not only the body, but also the mind.
A project that invites you to pause and contemplate, in which every element contributes to creating an experience of deep and measured comfort.
The heart of the design is the sculptural armrest: a continuous, enveloping element in solid wood, crafted with different thicknesses skilfully connected to each other in a fluid, organic architectural system. A structure that does not merely support, but designs the space and defines the identity of the armchair.
This textured frame embraces and contains the softness of the seat and backrest: two rounded, full volumes, evoking the naturalness of stones smoothed by time. The contrast between the expressive strength of the wood and the softness of the padding creates a visual and sensory balance of great refinement.
Arkena thus expresses a harmonious dialogue between design and nature, between solidity and comfort, where opposites do not clash but complement each other, giving shape to an intimate, elegant and deeply contemporary object.
