OAKI DINING CHAIR
OAKI DINING CHAIR
Designed by Stine Aas
Nordic know-how meets the art of Japanese joinery in the expressive Oaki chair.
The chair was inspired by the simplicity and artistry that characterises traditional Japanese wood craftsmanship.
The designer set out to conceal the chair’s joins, giving Oaki a refined, uniquely weightless character that looks seamless in appearance.
Each leg rises from the floor to the full height of the chair, cradling the backrest between all four. The rear legs are angled backwards from the seat, meeting the floor behind the chair rather than underneath it.
The position of the legs makes the chair come alive as they appear to step backwards. Crafted in solid oak and finished in smoked oak, light oiled oak or with a dark black sheen, and with a leather seat padding option, Oaki is rich in detail, and loaded with character.
DESIGNER
STINE AAS
A graduate of the Bergen Academy of Art and Design, Stine continues to live and work in Norway’s west coast city of Bergen.
Stine debuted on the Norwegian design scene just a few years ago, and since then, has produced a range of furniture and interior accessories that industry insiders describe as ground-breaking.
Some say Stine remains true to the Nordic tradition of wood craftsmanship; others say she has set a new standard for the craft. Stine’s eye for colour is unique.
She works with finishes that echo design trends, but more importantly, chooses tones that bring out the product’s personality. Stine’s spectacular Oaki chair for Northern is loaded with character, and available in finishes that highlight its sleek silhouette.
