Deek Objects has crafted a piece of furniture that transcends the ordinary with the "Ear" armchair. Inspired by the organic curves found in nature, this armchair echoes the gentle strength of tree branches and the soft allure of leaves and flowers. The dual backrests, one adorned in hornbeam wood and the other in fabric, are a nod to the natural elements that inspired its creation.
The "Ear" armchair distinguishes itself through its handcrafted construction by skilled artisans using entirely natural materials. The use of hornbeam wood, a sustainable and enduring material, ensures that the armchair is not only a design statement but also an eco-conscious choice. The soft teddy boucle fabric covering enhances the user's experience, offering a tactile dimension that invites relaxation and comfort.
Attention to detail is evident in the armchair's realization. The hornbeam wood's internal structure and fabric-covered back are meticulously shaped by hand, showcasing the craftsmanship that goes into each piece. The arm parts, carved by hand from the same wood, and the ecru-colored teddy pro/boucle fabric, specially woven for the "Ear" armchair, are testaments to the bespoke nature of Deek Objects' design philosophy.
With dimensions of 700mm by 700mm by 850mm (h), the "Ear" armchair is a versatile addition to any interior space. Its minimalist aesthetic, characterized by soft colors and curved lines, allows it to harmonize with various design schemes, making it a suitable choice for both contemporary and traditional settings.
The interaction between the armchair and its user is rooted in the inherent appeal of organic forms. The rounded contours of the "Ear" armchair invite users to immerse themselves in its comfort, while the warm wood tones and soft fabric hues create an inviting atmosphere even before one takes a seat.
Conceived and developed in Turkey, the "Ear" armchair project began in June 2022 and was launched in January 2022. The design process involved meticulous research into form, function, and ergonomics, with a focus on creating a product that embodies serenity and organic beauty. Overcoming technical challenges, the design team aimed to achieve a balance between a serene aesthetic and the highest level of comfort and sustainability.
Deek Objects' dedication to innovative and sustainable design has been recognized with the prestigious Iron A' Furniture Design Award in 2024, a testament to the "Ear" armchair's excellence in design, practicality, and innovation. With its patented design, the "Ear" armchair is not only a piece of furniture but a statement of Deek Objects' commitment to creating products that contribute to a better world.
