MATHEMATICAL IN APPROACH, TRANSPARENT IN CONSTRUCTION — 005 LOUNGE CHAIR

The 005 Lounge Chair by Max Lamb for Vaarnii is a tough piece of furniture — but a hard-as-nails first impression soon gives way to visual softness and physical comfort. Lamb began by investigating pine: how it is grown, sawn, received, sold. His approach thereafter was logical — choosing off-the-shelf sections of wood and piecing them together to create a large surface area and a form of quiet clarity. Material is scooped from the building block-like forms to create two ample convex recesses, revealing the characterful grain within. The result is a strikingly singular chair: 'mathematical in its approach and transparent in its construction.'

COMIC PROPORTIONS, SERIOUS CRAFT — 004 COFFEE TABLE

The 004 Coffee Table by Soft Baroque for Vaarnii is a bold, unapologetic object. Inspired by the rational joinery of traditional Finnish log houses — themselves a celebration of elementary wooden construction — Soft Baroque has inflated the round notch joint to 'comic proportions', creating a table of extraordinary solidity. The designers predict it will outlast any of its owners, and suggest it is largely suited to dancing on, given its hulking dimensions. The honest qualities of pine are boldly expressed across every surface.

RUSTIC MEETS MODERN — 002 AST STOOL

The Ast Stool by Dimitri Bähler for Vaarnii is characterised by an unpretentious design that bridges the rustic and the modern. Thick, sturdy pieces of pinewood are joined with quiet confidence — the only decorations being gently rounded edges and the knots and lively grain that are the hallmark of Finnish pine. The name Ast is German for 'branch', a nod to the knots that celebrate this often-overlooked material. Beyond seating, Ast works equally well as a nightstand or side table.
