Description
Vaarnii, the Maasto chair is a piece of furniture that is both simple, robust, and deeply rooted in materiality. Made entirely from Finnish pine, it draws its character from the expressive qualities of this local wood, chosen for its pronounced texture, natural warmth, and durability. At first glance, Maasto appeals with its familiar silhouette and bold lines. Yet behind this apparent simplicity lies a precise study of proportions and construction. The side panels, made of plywood with deliberately exposed edges, provide great stability while visually lightening the chair. The seat and backrest are carved from solid wood, ensuring long-lasting comfort and strength. Designed to suit both domestic settings and public spaces, Maasto fits seamlessly around a dining table, in an office, or in communal environments. It embodies a direct and functional aesthetic, true to Vaarnii’s philosophy: to produce locally made, durable objects with a strong material presence and no superfluous elements.
