Mati Sipiora specializes in creating unique, bespoke projects beyond his regular collection. Each piece is meticulously crafted to meet the client’s vision, ensuring a truly exclusive and personal work of art.
Project No. 1: The Astro Armchair
A client from Paris, seeking a truly exceptional and unique piece, approached Mati with a detailed brief and a set of inspirations. Based on this vision, Mati designed the Astro Armchair.
Inspiration
The Astro Armchair’s design draws from a confluence of diverse influences, including retrofuturism, brutalism, and the avant-garde architecture of the 80s and 90s. This piece uniquely merges the raw power of industrial forms with the refined sophistication seen in Raf Simons’ fashion and the sleek lines of automotive design.
Initial Sketches
Finding the final form for the Astro Armchair was a swift and decisive process. After an initial exploration of different shapes, the clear and final concept came to Mati almost immediately.
The Making Of
The creation of the Astro Armchair was a three-month process in the workshop, with each stage handled with meticulous care. This commitment to detail ensured that every element of the final piece met the highest standard of craftsmanship.
