Piece details
This set of twelve Monk chairs asserts a graphic presence in which the ecru canvas seems to float between the brown wooden uprights. The seats and backs, renewed according to the dealer, form a supple and continuous line; dark ends and fixings remain visible at the edge of the canvas.
The contrast between the matte textile surface, the warmth of the wood and the visible fixings gives the whole an expression that is both precise and warm. Gathered around a table or spread across a large room, the chairs create a particularly legible architectural rhythm, while allowing the attentive simplicity of their construction to be appreciated.
