Gestalt New York calls attention to the Ornäs chair collection—a range deeply rooted in the design philosophy of Scandinavian pioneer Carl-Gustaf Hiort af Ornäs. This contemporary capsule presents a range of seating that encapsulates his timeless approach to design. Crafted in a Finnish workshop by skilled artisans, the Ornäs chair collection reflects a commitment to preserving and reviving a unique design heritage.
The Siesta Chair, originally designed in 1952, is an iconic piece in the collection. Its elegant form is visually pleasing from all angles and its curved backrest boasts a cozy ambiance. The Pedro Chair, on the other hand, features a versatile design that complements various spaces and styles. A taller armchair model in the Ornäs chair collection is the Grand Pedro Chair. The design language is characterized by timeless elegance and functionality, reflecting Hiort af Ornäs' pursuit of contemporary yet enduring aesthetics.
