Red Oak Armchair by Odami
About the Item
Red oak armchair by Odami
Dimensions: L76.2 x W76.2 x H78.7 cm
Materials: Red oak
Also available: Ash, ebonized ash, black walnut.
This armchair, table, and lamp, a collaboration between Odami and One Wood, are the results of a lengthy process carried out over 8 months.
Deep in the woods on a relative’s property, a soaring 130 year-old red oak tree was ready to
come down, just over a decade prior, one of its major limbs rotted through and fell, leaving it
awkwardly imbalanced and under great stress.
The felling process was one of careful planning and preparation, not only to ensure everyone’s
safety, but to preserve as much of the main trunk as possible. In many ways, this could only be
done by first learning to know the tree and its surroundings with care and respect.
Each piece is constructed entirely out of thick slabs of solid wood milled exclusively from this
tree. As the wood dried and was worked into new forms, it stretched, warped, and cracked. These
pieces don’t simply make use of its Material, but attempt to harness this vitality, and embody
the stability and weight of its lost presence.
As simple compositions of heavy masses, each piece is an expression of this strength and power.
Solid rectilinear volumes give way to gentle curves and softened edges, creating deep shadows
and comfortable forms. With timeless simplicity, each piece is a humble celebration of Material
richness and Craft, and a study of the coziness of mass.
Odami is a design studio offering architectural, interior, and furniture design services. The
studio was founded in 2017 by Spanish architect Aránzazu González Bernardo and Canadian
designer Michael Norman Fohring.
Focusing primarily on residential and commercial projects, we work closely with clients and
craftsmen from the very beginning, ensuring that every detail and need is thoroughly considered
and well-executed. In this sense, our priority is to deliver thoughtful projects which are timeless,
well-crafted, and functional, with a strong aesthetic presence; projects that look and feel good,
and stand the test of time.
One wood is a woodworking company focused on a holistic approach to creating unique
handcrafted furniture.
This begins with selecting and salvaging trees destined to rot, or to be mulched or burned, and
ends with bringing new life to its lumber. This wood is processed and sculpted by us from start
to finish, creating beauty in something nearly lost to time. Seedlings are then transplanted into
advantageous positions to accelerate the re-growth of the forest and protect its diversity. We are
hands on in every step of the process, as we believe understanding the forest is just as important
as knowing how to shape its trees. We find great joy in working closely with our clients, creating
timeless and unique pieces that will be cherished for generations to come.

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.
