Guatambu Armchair

Rejane Carvalho Leite

The Guatambu Chair highlights the gesture of welcome. The arms emerge as natural extensions of the frame, designed to support the body with softness and precision. They guide the motion of sitting, define the user’s space, and reinforce a sense of permanence—making this a chair designed for longer pauses, unhurried conversations, and comfortable dining with enhanced support. The solid-wood backrest, carefully shaped, reveals an organic detail that references the guatambu fruit, most evident in the relationship between the arms, backrest, and sides. This organic quality always turns inward, exactly where the body makes contact, conveying security, presence, and balance without losing visual lightness.
