Amalia - Studio Eggpicnic
Using mimbre (wicker) to create useful everyday objects has been a traditional occupation of dwellers in Chilean city of Chimbarongo since the beginning of the century, so Santiago-based Studio Eggpicnic decided it was time to recreate a focal point on this small industry.
Designing the Amalia seating unit, the creative studio feeds the need for continuing this beautiful tradition, but inspired craftsmen to look into a more contemporary outcome.The sinuous lines of this seat were created alongside experienced mimbre manufacturers in order to get this result.
Artisanal tradition was intertwined with modern design to create a constructive method of transposing this modern revitalization in a surprising seat design.
