Simmis Chair by La Cube
About the Item
Simmis chair by La Cube
Madrid, 2016
Materials: Iron, chesnut
Dimensions: 90 x 45 x 45 cm
The Simmis chair plays with its symmetry from different perspectives. On one hand, there is the symmetry between the wood parts, highlighted by a central incision, which is the key element of the aesthetics of chair.
This incision, that divides the chair into two identical sides, provides lightness, balance and visual delicacy which is counteracted by the strength of the material and the cubic form of the lower part. On the other hand, there is the second symmetry, which corresponds to the inclination of the lower cube and the back of the chair. The profiles of these two elements make a symmetric figure between the higher and the lower part, which axis is the back.
Stefano Fusani, Italian artist-designer and Clara Hernández, Spanish cultural and art historian, are the founders of La Cube, an experimental design studio focused on material and theoretical research that addresses the origin of production processes in relation with the human habits of the 21st century.
The aim of the studio is to develop different kind of projects situated in the floating and ambiguous space between art and design, analyzing the material culture and making experimental projects with objects, installations and texts aimed to research the relation between those disciplines in current contexts and the cultural constructions with them associated.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
