Sideboard

Abdul Ghafoor / Kursi

£3150

Taking their name from the Arabic-Persian word for chair, Kursi are keen to stress their hands-on approach towards the design and manufacture of their currently small portfolio. We've settled on the sideboard principally for the charm of its retro undercarriage, but equally we couldn't help but be interested in the elevated pod. Pushed to explain this curious aesthetic, Abdul Ghafoor, Kursi's Design Director explained the pod had it's origins in a back copy of Wallpaper*. The designer created a mood board from a feature on Copenhagen's Royal Library, the projecting shape of which provided him with the inspiration for the form.
