Dezeen Showroom: designer Tim Rundle has expanded on his Rakino chair for Morgan, adding a pedestal dining table and timber-back dining chair to the collection.
Both of the new additions build on the language of the original Rakino chair, distinguishable for the way it marries an angular frame with soft and flowing joints.
The dining table has a single or twin pedestal base made from solid timber that introduces a sculptural presence into the collection. The single pedestal version is available with timber, marble or terrazzo tops, and the double in timber only.
The timber-backed dining chair reduces the full-height backrest to a lighter band at the top of the armrests, with a tapered profile that complements the chair’s subtle curves.
“Morgan’s manufacturing processes and techniques were the starting point for me,” said Rundle. “Their skill and knowledge in timber frame construction presented an opportunity to push things creatively.”
“The timber back model felt like a natural evolution of Rakino’s design language and frame – in a way it is the purest version in the collection.”
