MANILA, Philippines – Arper has always been on top of its game for its chair collections, which can be seen in top hotels, restaurants, office and residences all over the world. Characterized by flexibility and functionality, Arper chairs are now available at the Studio Dimensione showroom in One Parkade, BGC.
The Catifa Collection designed by Lievore Altherr Molina is one of the best-selling collections from Arper. It is available in different seat widths — 46, 53, 60, 70 and 80. Characterized by its sleek profile with a crisp, casual efficiency, it’s designed for contract use. Extremely flexible, Catifa extends the palette of finishes, bases and accessories for customization to accommodate an almost limitless array of contract applications without altering its essential character.
Aava designed by Antti Kotilainen transforms an essential and efficient form to evocative through the texture and warmth of wood. Soft curves yield a contemporary silhouette that is both striking yet sensitive, an adaptive form that can speak or assimilate to any environment. Made for both residential and contract use, Aava’s wooden shell and base are fabricated in a diverse range of materials, colors and finishes.
Designed by Rodolfo Dordoni, Norma is reduced to its essence: stark, lightweight, polished. This formal purity is leavened by vibrant colors, natural materials, lively details and topstitching. Originally conceived in leather, it now includes upholstered models and durable metal and veneered legs that extend its range and use. Norma is available in chair versions with three back heights, stool and lounge with hard leather covering or fabric and leather upholstery cover.
Palm is compact, lively and expressive. While suggestive of modern classics, its familiar form is updated with colors and contemporary materials. Exceptionally versatile and resilient just like the other designs of Lievore Altherr Molina. The Palm shell and base are fabricated in a diverse range of materials, colors and finishes. The Palm Collection is also GreenGuard certified.
Also designed by Lievore Altherr Molina, the Saari collection is a seating system of chairs, armchairs, sofas and benches designed for restaurants, bars, hotels and lobbies. A synthesis of classic and contemporary, its sculptural shape is enhanced by a wide range of colors and materials. Wood and metal frame upholstered in fabric or leather is mounted on a four-leg steel base which can be lacquered, chromed or veneered. The Saari Collection is GreenGuard certified.
Saya by Lievore Altherr Molina is a mark, a gesture, a graphic sign, rendered in wood to finish a space like a signature. Fluid in line, warm in material, its silhouette is bold, striking. The sum is more than the parts: Saya inspires inclusion in diverse environments from home to contract. Saya is fabricated in oak and finished in teak, and natural stain. Color stains include white, black, ochre and three shades of red to permit variable yet cohesive combination. The four-leg base is available in wood or chrome-finish steel. The four-leg chrome-finish steel version is stackable to allow for large-scale use and storage.
With Juno, the plastic chair has come of age. Designed by James Irvine, Juno is cast in a single form, it has fluid lines and a light profile, in silhouette and weight. It enjoys all the benefits of simplicity and uniformity but with a clever twist. With its singular, simple shape, Juno brings efficiency and customization together in unique combination. Available in six colors: white, black, sand, anthracite, orange, yellow. All variations are stackable to allow for large-scale use and storage.
