Maarten Van Severen, 2007

The .07 swivel chair is one of the last designs Maarten Van Severen managed to complete before his death. It is the result of an intense involvement with the natural material leather, which had fascinated him for some time. Although .07 uses the .04 base, mechanism and armrests, it is nonetheless quite unique. Its seat consists of a comfortable upholstered, pliable construction that is covered with high-end calf leather. The striking open seams of the dark brown leather covering are remarkable. They draw attention to the quality of the material used while at the same time emphasizing the precise contours of the seat, which, despite its upholstery, is nonetheless slender. As an unobtrusive chair that does not, however, fail to exude a serious dignity the.07 is an ideal choice for the home desk.

Specifications

Base chromed die-cast aluminium, armrests made of polyurethane integral foam, seat upholstered and covered in calf leather.

Designer


 
Maarten Van Severen, born 1956 in Antwerp, Belgium, studied architecture at the Sint-Lucas Art Academy in Ghent, Belgium. He designed his first furniture pieces in 1986 and in the following year established an independent workshop, where he pursued the limited, semi-industrial production of his own furniture designs. This unified process of design and production was a fundamental aspect of his work over a long period of time, in which he devoted himself to the examination of basic furniture types: chair, table, chaiselongue, shelving, cabinet. He developed primary solutions for these categories based on a comprehensive exploration of the questions of form, material and construction. Beginning in 1990, Maarten Van Severen began to collaborate closely with Rem Koolhaas and also turned his attention to interior design tasks. During this period he also assumed teaching positions at a variety of institutions, including University College West Flanders in Kortrijk (1996), the Academy of Fine Arts in Maastricht (1996-97), Delft University of Technology (1998) and universities in Helsinki and Barcelona. The beginning of his collaboration with Vitra in 1996 marked a new phase in his career. It offered him the opportunity to work with new materials and also brought a much wider degree of exposure and influence. Until his death in 2005 in Ghent, Maarten Van Severen developed a range of new designs for Vitra, which have progressively entered series production.
