Arper - Kata Robinia 3D Knit armchair micropadded with graphic pattern

Lounge armchair with structure in solid robinia with teak finish. Shell with steel frame and 3D knit fabric Knit with micro-padded pattern with graphic pattern made with recycled polyester fiber yarns and available in 3 colors. Suitable for indoor use.
The first lounge chair by Arper in solid wood, Kata evokes the chair of tradition, woven in wood and straw, reinterpreting it with the use of contemporary and sustainable solutions.

Kata combines warmth and graphic purity, in a juxtaposition between the presence in space and a minimal profile, suspended between strength and delicacy, tradition and technology.

Kata combines traditional craftsmanship with soft technology, for an elegant and distinctive lounge seat, suitable for multiple indoor and outdoor applications. From the intimacy and warmth of domestic environments, to the needs of shared spaces in the contract environment.

The coating is made with post consumer polyester yarn transformed into light and durable fibers. The fabric has been technologically designed to fit perfectly to the seat stem, minimizing material waste and is available in two types: 3D knit with graphic pattern and micro internal padding or 3D knit with striped pattern (the latter also suitable for outdoor use).

Arper

Arper creates chairs, tables and furnishing accessories for the community, work and home.
Our approach is relationship-oriented, and translates into a design focused on aesthetics and usability; in a global, innovative and personalized service; in the enhancement of local contexts within internationalization strategies; in organizational policies always marked by transparency and the maintenance of a solid and coherent brand identity.

A FAMILY STORY - We were born in 1989, as a family business. We have grown rapidly: from simple furniture manufacturers, to international design brands. Our inclusive approach, focused on people, has accompanied the growth of turnover and employees: passed, the latter, from a few tens to several hundred within a few years.

OUR APPROACH TO DESIGN - Giving birth to a new product means taking care: of every phase of its development-from design, to production, to its environmental impact. We do this by combining form and function, always with great attention to detail: the final synthesis is perfect, in its elegance.

A UNIQUE SENSITIVITY - Our design idea follows the versatility of essential shapes. Over time, our approach has developed from six core concepts.
Balance, Family, Intuition, Lightness, Colour, Play.

"Fifteen years ago, we created the Arper Environmental Department, our first tentative step in a world where sustainability was increasingly becoming a crucial issue for our generation. The first thing to do is to accept our responsibilities: we are part of the problem, and we are all part of it. Such a revelation requires a reaction: we are designers, problems are our daily bread, so why not start designing a responsible environmental path."
