The president of nowymodel.org, about our "Kowalski Chair" for Take Me To Design.

Julia Starczewska-Zakrzewska, president of nowymodel.org, about our "Kowalski Chair" for Take Me To Design:

A product from the "Icons of Polish Design" series. This classic chair, designed by the renowned Poznań interior designers and architects Bogusława and Czesław Kowalski, was originally part of their legendary wall unit set from the communist era, but it never went into production. It was only thanks to nowymodel.org that it finally took shape and has been available on the market since 2014.
Light, slim, and stylish, each chair is handmade from beech wood and bent plywood covered with natural chestnut veneer, resulting in varying shades and grain patterns.

A classic chair designed by the famous couple of designers and interior architects from Poznań, Bogusława and Czeslaw Kowalski, had originally been a part of their legendary “wall-set”, but never entered production. Only since 2014, thanks to nowymodel.org it has finally become material reality and is now available on the market.

It is light, slim and stylish. Each piece is made by hand of bent beech plywood covered with natural chestnut veneer, which gives it its unique tinge and graining.

Kowalski's chair is an ideal example of how the sixty-years old vision of modernity, thanks to its simplicity, ergonomics and innovative character, is still perfectly up-to-date and that design can be an important element of our common identity.
