Theia Armchair Low

A gem to look at When it comes to designing chair frames, it is often the case that practical considerations lead the way. This is a pattern that, with Theia, Sebastian Herkner was looking to disrupt, turning the frame of this chair into its core aesthetic element.In this, his second design for Freifrau, his concept was to fuse the frame and the seating shell – not just in technical, but in optical terms, too. This is something he achieved by deliberately extending the frame into the back of the shell. Looking at the Theia Armchair, it certainly has something of an inset gemstone about it – and this is a deliberate reference. With his new model Theia, Sebastian Herkner has made the chair the jewel in the crown of any room, pla... More

Mid-Century Magic

A study in elegance and restraint, this renovated mid-century modern residence marries architectural authenticity with curated comfort. Dumont Dumont Afternoon light drapes itself across the living room, catching the soft sheen of the solid ‘Mvule’ timber wall cladding with cantilevered shelves — each plank a ribbon of warm grain, drawing the eye toward the central, cantilevered mantle that seems to float effortlessly above the fireplace.

Product • By DumontThe Elea Sofa

The Elea Sofa

An alluring illusion. What first meets the eye when taking a glance at the Elea sofa is the gorgeous grain on the solid timber sides combined with the almost monolithic cushioning and upholstery. If you take the time to appreciate it, one will come to the realisation that the sofa appears to be hovering off the ground. Meticulously engineered and carefully machined, the slim but sturdy height-adjustable legs are at just the right height to make the sofa appear floating above the ground which led us to aptly name the sofa 'Elea', which means 'float' in Swahili. The framework is made from solid timber using traditional carpentry techniques to ensure a rigid and durable sofa frame after which the loose cushions are precisely marked and forme... More

Crafted from carefully selected Slavonian white oak aged between 150 and 250 years, each table is shaped by experienced artisans who work with the natural structure of the wood rather than against it. We do not hide knots, cracks or variations. We preserve them. Every mark tells the story of time, climate and growth. Production is entirely made-to-order, allowing each piece to be adapted to the client’s dimensions, lifestyle and architectural vision. The result is not simply furniture, but a functional sculpture designed to last for generations.     More

Voliere

Composed by Bodo Sperlein, Voliere is an opulent, eye-catching centrepiece with a dramatic, layered appearance, inviting an intimate atmosphere in even the most spacious settings. This striking installation piece is a contemporary reinterpretation of a classic 1920s art deco chandelier. With its nod to elegant French art deco lighting design, Voliere’s intricately layered wood veneer elements are arranged in the manner of feathery plumes. “One can learn so much from the past, in particular the appreciation for materiality which is also apparent in my LZF designs.“ Bodo Sperlein “Voliere’’ comes from the French name volière for outdoor bird houses.
