DESIGN NAME:
BRUK Armchair
PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Armchair
INSPIRATION:
The Black Owl craft furniture collection is inspired by the breath-taking beauty of Belarus’s landscapes. All pieces are based on original ideas and are made to reflect the artistic touch of the designer.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
We believe that the BRUK armchair is both highly functional and unique. Felt-making is not widely used nowadays, and we decided to display the beauty of this underrated material. It is important to note that felt is processed by hand using a traditional technique that requires no seams.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
Following slow design principles, Black Owl consumes lumber in an environmentally friendly way and produces furniture that will last a lifetime, thanks in part to durable steel.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
The armchair was produced in the summer of 2018 in Minsk, Belarus.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY:

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:
Steel, wool felt
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES:
740 x 560 x 780
TAGS:
armchair, wool felt, steel
RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The main idea of this design is to promote felt-making. We aimed to restore a traditional technique that requires no seams.
In our opinion, felt is one of the most underrated materials nowadays. The felt for the BRUK armchair is made of organic wool from Belarussian sheep that are not exposed to chemicals and are kept in high standard farm conditions.
CHALLENGE:
The most interesting part was the interaction with the felt artist Anastasia Arais who has completed her job perfectly.
