Favela

Without any internal frame, Favela is made with many strips of natural wood, Pine for indoor use, teak also for outdoor. In both cases, the strips are nailed one over the other by hand, in a random arrangement that makes every chair different from the next. The beauty of Favela lies in the choice of natural materials combined with the apparent simplicity of construction. In reality, the armchair is the result of a week of work and great manual expertise. Craftmanship is an essential working method to provide edra’s quality, the oldest and newest one, and it is through craftsmanship that knowledge is handed down: work is done according to a high-tech project, while thinking back to the good manual skills that have always existed here in Tuscany. The hands are the only way to provide the most excellent quality. The hands can sense, adapt, build, convey and achieve goals that machines simply cannot. An essential balance between technology and beauty, between reason and instant wonder. This is one of edra's values: passion, which creates the greatest quality. The one that belongs to its land, Tuscany, the heart of Italy, the one that gave the world the masterpieces of Renaissance At edra, fabrics and upholsteries are an integral part of any project, in engineering and aesthetic terms, not just trendy or colourful covers. Every product in the Collection is preceded by extensive research into the ideal covering to complement their tactile and technological features: edra devises and designs the materials that can be helpful for any project, and then it produces them on an exclusive basis so they will be perfect for its collections.
