Pair of Pine Armchairs
Joaquim Belsa Aldea / Aresta - C. 1960
Throughout his career, the Catalan industrial designer Joaquim Belsa Aldea (1929-2018) had an interest in the design and production of simple, austere furniture conceived for a wide audience. In his designs he used traditional and durable materials, such as natural wood, manila cane, cattail or textiles.
This chair with armrests, designed in the sixties, is made up of a pine wood structure with a beveled back and a seat made of webbing and foam and upholstered in dark gray cotton fabric.
It perfectly synthesizes the author's ideology of simplicity and modernity.

The creation of his own company Aresta together with Joan Mañá in 1961 allowed him to develop his own designs, influenced by rationalism and the formal concerns of the Modern Movement.
