S.A.C. Dining Chair with Leather by Naoya Matsuo.Materials: Metal, Plywood with Oak Veneer, Leather.Dimensions: D 50 x W 48.3 x H 72.5 cm.The founders, Mia and Torben Koed, decided to put their 30 years of experience into a new project. It was time for a change and a new challenge. The challenge was to build an ambitious design brand from the ground up with high-quality materials and great attention to the little details. With a drive to create new originals, the WOUD collection is founded upon the idea to look ahead instead of looking back and share the love for honest design. Therefore, we are eager to discover and develop new ideas whether it being in form, function or choice of material. Naoya Matsuo is a design talent born in Tokyo. He has studied design in Tokyo and woodwork in London. After working in a design studio in London, Naoya established his own studio in Tokyo with the clear mantra to create "forms from structures" not "structures from forms". His intercultural education embraces and combines the finest of Japanese craftsmanship with modern expressions. Inspired by technical precision his work synthesizes very meticulous considerations of structures and assembling. He uses regular materials and common techniques in order to make the manufacturing process as simple as possible. Without losing the aesthetics, he elegantly masters to merge the functionality and characteristic appearance in a design. Naoya Matsuo’s significant design the S.A.C. chair was shown in our very first catalogue. The curves of the backrest give the chair the possibility of being stacked without the oak veneered plywood touches each other. Combined with its functional construction S.A.C. takes the balanced and peaceful simplicity from Japanese design with a touch of Nordic living.
