About the Item

Authorized and numbered reissue, originally designed in 1996, limited to 83 units - the age of the author. Ruy Ohtake (1938-2021), one of Brazil’s most important architects, transitioned from concrete to steel in his furniture designs, emphasizing structural independence. The Banco Onda exemplifies this shift, where Ohtake used fluid, organic curves enabled by laminated steel, offering high strength with minimal thickness. This approach allowed the architect to achieve a distinctive visual lightness, giving the impression that the bench is floating or barely touching the ground. The design maintains a sense of effortless elegance, reflecting Ohtake’s commitment to innovation. Through this piece, he preserved the unique and forward-thinking aesthetic that became a hallmark of his distinguished career.

'Flex1' Low Chair by Stephane Ducatteau, France, 2005
By Stephane Ducatteau
Located in London, GB
'Flex1' low chair in black patina sheet metal by Stephane Ducatteau, France, 2005. Signed. All Ducatteau pieces are available exclusively from Decoratum and are To Order only. Please allow 6-8 weeks for delivery. Exchange rate fluctuations may apply. Stéphane Ducatteau Ducatteau is an artist and creator of contemporary furniture working primarily with sheet metal. Although his furniture is about the aesthetic, he never forgets the functional aspects of his pieces. His approach is sculptural, using a pleasurable mix of ergonomics and curves to generate an emotional, almost sensual response in the viewer. The metals Ducatteau uses, take on an almost ebony-like effect thanks to the well-worked patinas that he produces, often treating the metal with acids or minerals; each piece is produced to the same rigorous standards that you would expect from someone with the skills of a wrought iron metal worker combined with the impossibly high standards of an artist. Ducatteau’s background is not what you would expect from an artist, having initially studied engineering. However, over the course of several years he attended evening classes in Paris studying Fine arts (drawing, painting, modelling, glasswork, etc) before obtaining a degree in Art Metalwork. After working as an engineer in an architect’s office, he made the decision to devote a full year to further training in the art of metalwork as he no longer wished to merely be a disassociated part of the design process; rather he wanted to be the process, involving himself in the entire project from concept to design to final realization of the object. His work has developed over time, moving from a more decorative style to simpler creations where he has distilled the very basic essence of design into deceptively pure, functional works of art. A recurring device or theme of his work method is the accumulation or repetition of relatively basic elements whose very repetition creates a rhythm which provides direction for his creativity processes. Ducatteau worked for several years in Roubaix in northern France out of a collective workshop before settling in Normandy in 2003. He has a number of exhibitions and fairs under his belt as can be seen below.
