Pair of Chairs mod. S-5

Pair of armchairs (model S-5), designed by Jordi Casablancas during the 1960s.

Jordi Casablancas was a prominent figure in the mid-century Catalan design avant-garde, associated with the movement that brought together rationalist architecture and the artisanal tradition of furniture making. His pieces stand out for their solid geometric construction and honest use of local raw materials.

These chairs feature a solid oak frame with straight lines and angled armrests. The seat and backrest strap are made of taut, thick leather, lending the design a sense of sobriety and balance.
