Juliet


REPUBLIC OF II BY IV



Short description

The Juliet Collection is a testament to timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and sustainability. Crafted in Verona, Italy, these seating pieces draw inspiration from the iconic tale of Romeo and Juliet, paying homage to the city's rich history and enduring love.

At the heart of the Juliet Collection lies an unwavering commitment to exceptional craftsmanship. The intricate construction showcases an extraordinary level of artistry, with soft, organic shapes and design details that present a formidable challenge in manufacturing. Juliet pushes the boundaries of seating production for contract use, with every aspect thoughtfully considered to offer a superior user experience.

Made from solid ash, the collection includes a dining chair, counter stool, and bar stool, designed to age beautifully over time. Available in natural ash, walnut stain, and black stain finishes, as well as options for upholstered, caned, or open backs, the collection offers versatility for diverse design preferences.

Hand-finished details, such as delicate handwoven caning, exemplify expert craftsmanship. The collaboration with local artisans and women-empowered factories supports traditional craftsmanship and the local economy.

Juliet is ergonomically designed for comfort and boasts thoughtful practical features. Metal pulls and T-hooks discreetly integrated into the seat backs provide accessibility and convenience, while metal finishes and protective caps add sophistication and durability.

While Juliet possesses a delicate profile, it is engineered and BIFMA-certified to withstand the demands of heavy contract use. This remarkable combination of beauty and durability sets the collection apart, defying expectations and showcasing the designers' ingenuity and skill in creating beautiful yet resilient seating solutions.

Sustainability is also a priority. With FSC-certified wood sourcing and resource optimization through the repurposing of wood waste and water-based staining techniques, Juliet is an exemplary model of sustainable design.

Juliet stands as a testament to design passion, innovation, and artistry, setting new benchmarks in furniture design.
