Ariel by Mario Ferrarini

Ariel by Italian designer, Mario Ferrarini, embodies a minimalist approach to design with a focus on its form and functionality. A result from the first collaboration between Ferrarini and DavisFurniture, this multi-use chair’s design is forged from a sculptural steel frame and then refined with wood components on the seat and back. Ariel’s unique details add a sense of modern playfulness that is impossible to overlook.

A distinguished, light-scale multi-use chair with refined proportions and a timeless aesthetic,Ariel introduces itself in a stately manner no matter the application. The outline of the chair is exaggerated by the tapered wood detail of the back which gracefully expands to seamlessly join together with its metal base.

The tubular steel underscores this arched back as it cascades down to the leg. As it gently descends the rounded steel reshapes to form a rectangular detail at the base which completes this intricate design. Ariel’s silhouette effortlessly transitions into bar height seating.

The wood seat and back are available in oak or walnut veneer with an upholstered seat pad option, which furthers the design flexibility of this piece.

Ariel’s steel base is available in chrome or powder coated finishes and stacks for easy storage.

Ariel’s design is a convenient option for projects that desire a unique aesthetic yet require excellent functionality and durability.
