Radice finds its underlying beauty and simplicity in its structure. What appears to be a traditional chair from the front with surprisingly only a single back leg – the ‘root’. It is a visual improvisation, where two things meet unexpectedly.

It is light both visually and in weight, using no screws or metal fittings, yet also passing stringent Bifma standards to ensure it is structurally sound, stable and reliable.

Mattiazzi is a family owned producer of wooden furniture in Udine, Italy founded in 1978. Their highly specialized craftsmen operate the most sophisticated machinery available to the wood industry. An eight-axis CNC milling machine allows wood to take the complex shapes you would associate more with injection-molded plastic. Operating such a machine is an art and Mattiazzi disproves the modern myth that mechanized manufacturing is not a craft.
