Square Small Armchair

The Square Chair is a small upholstered armchair designed by Jonathan Olivares, for Kvadrat New York flagship showroom. The project takes inspiration from Olivares’ collaboration with the Danish textile manufacturer.

“Square Chair derives its formal language from the basic square unit that makes up the warp and weft of a woven textile. Enlarged and abstracted, the chair’s shape represents the textile used to make it: the chair is square on a micro and macro level. As textiles are some of the most flexible products, the chair is also conceived as an adaptable object”, says Olivares.
