001 dining chair, black
Description
Vaarnii’s pinewood chair may look stiff and angular, but thanks to the curved seat, it is surprisingly comfortable to sit on. The dimensions of the chair, designed by Fredrik Paulsen, are also restrained in relation to its sturdy shapes. As a practical detail, there is a groove under the seat, allowing you to pull the chair out more easily.
In addition to the brutal design language typical of Paulsen's design, another of his signature elements stands out in the dining chair: pine wood, this time stained black. The dark finish highlights the unique character of pine, allowing its lively – at times almost psychedelic – knots and grain patterns to remain beautifully visible, making each chair truly one of a kind. The chair is crafted in Finland from domestic pine wood.

Fredrik Paulsen is a Swedish designer whose multidisciplinary work often features themes such as anti-consumption, escapism and psychedelia, as well as countercultures. With his designs, he wants to challenge the preciousness and sophistication traditionally associated with the field – instead, he aims at designs that are carefree, playful and that create a sense of community. Paulsen, who studied at the Beckmans School of Design and the Royal College of Art in London, lives and works in Stockholm. In 2024, Paulsen was awarded the Bruno Mathsson Prize, the largest design award in the Nordic countries.
