Capturing the essence of movement in a stationary object is the driving concept behind Nooms latest creation, the Archipen Chair. Designed by Kateryna Sokolova, co-founder of the Ukrainian design brand, this chair embodies dynamic energy and fluidity, drawing inspiration from the pioneering sculptor and artist Olexander Archipenko. Renowned for his patented Archipentura method, a mechanical system that creates the illusion of motion through shifting images, Archipenkos visionary work is prevalent in todays society through advertising billboards that have the ability to change images. With the Archipen Chair, his legacy in design is celebrated anew, merging the worlds of art and function in a bold, innovative way that bridges the past with the present.Though the Archipen Chair itself remains stationary, its design evokes movement. The ash wood legs, flat in profile, are configured in such a way that some appear to have started shifting, while others have settled into their final position mirroring the dynamic motion of Archipenkos work. This subtle interplay of forms gives the chair a sense of life and motion, even at rest, making it visually captivating from any angle.The rest of the Archipen Chair is focused on its user. Its rounded back and curved seat gently cradles the sitter, while the foam cushion, upholstered in smooth, supple leather ensures a plush and comfortable seating experience. Because of its solid wood frame, the Archipen Chair can withstand daily use, making it suitable for both commercial and residential settings.Available in natural, stained, or painted finishes, and with a variety of fabric options, the minimalist Archipen Chair transcends time, proving that modern design can be timeless. With its artistic lineage and ergonomic qualities, this is a piece destined to remain a staple for years to come.To learn more about the Archipen Chair by Kateryna Sokolova for Noom, visit noom-home.com.
