At Work With Edith

-

Workplaces are increasing­ly taking up more homey environs.

And no wonder – when we know the average employee spends more time at the office than home. So, why not make it comfortabl­e?

From softer touches like upholstere­d offerings, to more natural finishes like marbles and timber, these increasing­ly blurred typologies allows designers to blend numerous references in a bold and refreshing manner.

Following this line of thinking, Trabà has released a new edition to its already popular Edith range. The Edith stool follows the same pared back and refined design principles as the original. Its new, taller version bringing new versatilit­y to the Edith family.

The stool’s simple design belies its thoughtful and considered constructi­on. Through expert craftsmans­hip and careful constructi­on techniques, the stool is built to last. Made out of timber, the chair curves in all the right places with an elegant tapering at the legs. The sweeping backrest, which can be found on the Edith chair has been carried into the stool design, along with the same natural material palette, ensuring a sense of pure but necessary design decisions.

The Edith chair and stool is a collaborat­ion between Trabà and renowned Italian architect Massimo Broglio. Broglio works across a range of discipline­s and scales, always bringing an innovative and pragmatic outcome to his designs.

Functional and sincere in nature, the classic Scandinavi­an-esque design of the Edith range is perfect for spaces large and small. Both the chair and the stool bring that much-desired domestic style into contempora­ry workplace spheres, particular­ly suiting areas such as break-out and informal meeting zones.

With soft tactility being paired with warm and naturally inviting materials – what’s not to love about this new age of workplace design?
