Sustainable Furniture makes furniture of wood. They master the material not only in its traditional form but also using the newest digital production technologies. Medici was born there, on the factory floor where things are physically made. The chair is inspired by the material, by the machinery, and, of course, by the skill and craftsmanship of the people, we worked with. Right from the beginning, I was looking for a distinct grammar for my design, a language that is very true to the material. I like the idea of wood cutting into planks which is how it is processed in the first place: the tree is sliced into planks. I like the way a carpenter joins wood, very immediate and direct. The construction remains bare open, plain, and legible. Structure turns into form. Medici is conceived as a low chair with a comfortably reclined posture. Its generous dimension gives the chair an embracing confidence. The chair can be imagined as solitary furniture or in small groups. It can be used in private or public, indoors and outdoors.
