ERICEIRA CHAIR
Bruno Marques, 2019
Comfortable, light and robust, Ericeira chair was created with the local accommodation in mind.
RRP PRICES EX. VAT FROM: 465€
The Ericeira chair draws inspiration from the local traditions of Ericeira, particularly the heritage of its fishermen who once rented out their homes to tourists visiting the village during the summer months. Created for homestays, lodges, guesthouses, and B&Bs, this chair embodies a perfect blend of comfort, lightness, and robustness.
The cross-frame design, crafted to match the thickness of the legs, gives the chair strength and durability, while preserving an elegant and minimalist aesthetic. It balances structural integrity with visual lightness, making it both a practical and stylish addition to any setting.
The unique cut of the legs, combined with the subtle curvature of the seat, elevates the seating position, creating a light and airy feel. This design element is inspired by the delicate curves of surfboards, reflecting the smooth, flowing lines of the waves at Ericeira's beaches, known as the surf capital of Portugal and a World Surfing Reserve.
The Ericeira chair combines history, nature, and craftsmanship, making it an ideal piece for those who appreciate functional design with a story to tell. Its versatility allows it to seamlessly integrate into any coastal-inspired or contemporary interior, while offering both comfort and style to guests and residents alike.
