With the Alta Ottoman Wood, Etel continues its role as the official re-editor of Oscar Niemeyer’s furniture, the small but fiercely inventive body of work the architect of Brasília and the United Nations Headquarters created alongside his daughter Anna Maria Niemeyer. Each re-edition is handcrafted and bears the seal of the Fundação Oscar Niemeyer, certifying its authenticity.
Designed in 1971 alongside its matching lounge chair, this ottoman rests on black lacquered wooden legs and repeats the same pudgy, rounded seat counterbalanced by an elegant curve, shown here in Barcelona Preto leather though fabric can also be requested. It was among the very first pieces of furniture Niemeyer and his daughter created together.
ETEL’s design collection comprises one century of Brazilian furniture. With its pioneering re-edition work, ETEL brings back graceful designs of the modern Brazilian production, discovered only recently, and now considered as one of the most relevant worldwide for that period. Pieces characterised by skilful handiwork and the use of exquisite materials were created by architects and artists intent on unveiling the local culture, under the influence of the international avant-garde. This retrieval is based on a strict methodology, faithfulness to the originals, and intensive collaboration with the institutes and families that represent each creator’s oeuvre. The collection includes pieces by Oscar Niemeyer, Lina Bo Bardi, Jorge Zalszupin, Giuseppe Scapinelli, among others.
