Natural, comfortable, and sustainable. True beauty comes with use. The Kata Chair transforms the materiality of wood into a generous, distinctive, lighter chair for everyday applications like dining, meeting, working and beyond. The simplicity and elegance of the Kata Chair is ideal for lively groups and gatherings, reflective of the warm encounters and experiences it supports. A strong focus on materials and textures makes it a timeless addition to any table, desk or meeting space. The Kata Chair is available with options of a wood or upholstered shell. In keeping with the Kata family, this new edition celebrates the natural beauty of wood. A combination of a solid wood frame and a delicately textured, custom patterned shell is available with and without armrests and in a range of finishes: natural, black, and rust oak. Comfort can be further enhanced with optional seat cushions. The upholstered version and cushions are enhanced by decorative stitching, available in contrasting colors or tone-on tone. The collection is FSC-certified with construction techniques and easy disassembly, designed for greater sustainable impact. Lightweight in form and environmental footprint, Kata is designed with circular sustainability at its core. Arper’s first solid wood lounge chair, Kata takes inspiration from artisan-made wood and woven straw chairs and reimagines the near universal typology using contemporary, sustainable solutions in an expression that’s both graphic and warm. Kata finds form in juxtaposition—an evocative gesture in the movement between material presence and minimal silhouette, softness and strength, tradition and technology. The Kata lounge chair is a union of traditional craftsmanship and soft technology. An oak and black locust FSC certified wooden frame supports a tailor-made 3D knit textile. The knit cover is created from recycled polyester made from post-consumer plastic that is converted into durable and lightweight fibers. The knit technology is formed to fit the frame, avoiding leftover material waste found in traditional manufacturing. The unified seat and back structure is available in a graphic-patterned 3D knit with internal micro-padding in natural tones of linen, wheat, or charcoal, or a lightweight 3D knit in parallel striped pattern in a choice of colors: water, wheat, or charcoal – also suitable for outdoor use. Additional loose seat and back cushions finishes can be customized in both Arper's complete fabric catalogue and in graphic-patterned 3D Knit.
