Nave Leisure set
Ideal for indoor/outdoor institutional public spaces such as galleries, patios or common areas of museums, offices, spas, clubhouses, or domestic verandahs as well. The “Nave” leisure set was designed as a result of observing the laminated curved wood beams of the roof structure of a beach house that served as inspiration to intervene this raw material, reusing it in slices to create a body container. The “Nave” leisure set has strips of wood with spaces between them so that when the sun shines on them, shadows are filtered on the deck, intensifying the illusion of summertime and attenuating the heat of the bodies with the sea breeze. Hosting the bodies like an oyster shell, offering relax and the meeting of gazes, provoking encounter and dialogue are all attributes of this set. The “Nave” leisure set involves uses more than functions, it suggests choreographies in order to answer to rituals, it provokes or promotes free appropriation. Dismountable legs also contribute towards easy storage, freight and delivery.
System
The “Nave” leisure set is a family of different elements that all together and in different configurations create a “sense of place” conferring the users a space of leisure and chill out. It is composed of a long bench with backrest, a long table that works as well as a bench without backrest, an individual bench or seat with backrest and a chaise longue.
