Woven Bamboo Meets Solid Wood and Portuguese Joinery

Woven Bamboo Meets Solid Wood and Portuguese Joinery

Designer Marco Sousa Santos focuses on the beauty of Portuguese joinery and craftsmanship in the Barca Lounge Chair from Branca. Made from Ash or Iroko wood, the handcrafted chairs are built over the course of a week, as the process includes many steps, such as wood selection, joint carving, and hand assembly, along with digital CNC pre-drilling.

The smooth, curved shape of the wooden components merges with the traditionally woven seat to result in a comfortable and durable chair for indoor or outdoor usage.
