Mattiazzi Leva Chair

Designed by Foster + Partners for Mattiazzi

Pared-down seating that does more with less

Mattiazzi Leva Chair
Crafted from a single piece of wood, the Leva Chair's steam-bent arms broaden into a supportive backrest, a gestural quality reminiscent of an oar's handle as it splays into a flat blade. Drawing on Mattiazzi's expertise in woodcraft, Foster + Partners gave Leva a gently curved seat for unexpected comfort and a quiet character.

"The chair remains the archetypical furniture piece and one of the most difficult objects to design, requiring a deep understanding of form and comfort."
