The Curvas Dining Chair has a simple silhouette that belies the sweeping lines of its wooden frame. Despite being essentially backless except for a thin slab of wood on the top, the sides and arms of the shapely seat sport exaggerated curves that thankfully does not affect the posture of the person sitting in it.
Created by Goncalo Campos, a Portuguese product designer, the Curvas Dining Chair was meticulously designed to ensure the maximum comfort of the sitter. As for its construction, Campos reveals, "It's thin and sturdy structure is only possible thanks to great advances in computer controlled machinery, that can precisely shape each part, to be later masterfully assembled by skilled craftsmen."
Elegant and minimalist, the Curvas Dining Chair would fit into any existing decor easily, especially traditional ones.
