The Portuguese Roots Chair

The Portuguese Roots Chair concept

Beyond the story, the Portuguese Roots Chair is built with great concern for quality and the environment and that`s why here, you will be able to find here a great part of the entire development process of this piece of art.
PORTUGUESE ROOTS CHAIR is the difference between a good investment and badly spent money. A solid wood element, if it`s well cared can last a lifetime and can pass from generation to generation creating cultural value over time .
At AROUNDtheTREE we seek to create lasting and iconic pieces through time. We look into the furniture architecture, and in the art of knowing how to make , an important pillar in the construction of our designs.
In a highly technological world, we believe that the Portuguese Roots Chair will make us keep connected to the roots of humanity . In the future, we will live in a house surrounded by domotics and Ai, but in the center, we will be seated in a beautiful element of furniture made by hands that respects the environment,

The NEXT ICON of DESIGN WORLDWIDE

We seek to integrate the best of our culture to international references through the rational use of wood as a raw material,
a method and production control which are in agreement with all the ecological requirements, and the investment in the use of
cutting edge technological equipment along with artisanal techniques.

The hands behind the Portuguese ROOTS Chair

As Antonio Gedeão said in a philosopher’s stone, the dream commands life, but more important than dreaming is to realize it. In AROUNDtheTREE, any dream to be realized needs people who can do it. These artists can be called “dream whispers”, that is, men and women who help transform ideas into real things. without their know-how, all these projects would remain closed in our ego without any chance to see the light of day.

The Portuguese Roots Art of Joinery

The uniqueness of this part is inversely proportional to its design.
If in the field of design is simple, in construction, complexity is the best way to characterize it.
The strength of a chain lies in its weakest link, just as the whole structure of a chair depends on its joineries. The Portuguese Roots Chair has 15 different components in a total and they are responsible for the realization of a dream. It’s these right-sided marriages that reveal the mastery behind the design.

Portuguese Roots Chair in color

Portuguese Roots Chair was born in Lisbon . The first Portuguese Roots in color, was influenced by the sky, the sea and the river Tagus that turns the Blue into a daily constant of locals. We leave here a tribute to the chair with this first Blue color, but with the possibility of making it more yours by choosing the most suitable ton for your project.
