AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Conceived in 2016, this Italian-made design by Johan Lindstén represents the designer's celebrated seasonal collection for Cappellini.

An exceptional example of contemporary design craftsmanship, it achieves a striking visual harmony between its structural geometry and narrative textile art.

The backrest showcases an intricate wool textile composition—a snowy alpine vista inhabited by polar bears—rendered through advanced electronic embroidery that preserves the aesthetic of hand-worked cross-stitch. The entire piece is anchored by a refined ash wood frame finished in deep black lacquer.

Johan Lindstén (b. 1981) is an independent Swedish designer who runs Lindstén Form Studio in Stockholm. His designs are characterized by unexpected emotional narratives, optimization for industrial execution, and a playful combination of forms. His celebrated collaborations with elite design houses like Cappellini have earned him a permanent spotlight in international galleries and premium interior art fairs.
