It's All About Wood
Tangram is proud to be hosting the Scottish launch of the new Republic of Fritz Hansen™ Series 7™ chair collection, at an event on Tuesday 28th February from 5.30pm.
Our Edinburgh showroom will be made over for the occasion in a tribute to all things Fritz Hansen™, with refreshments, music and projections all paying homage to the brand's Scandinavian heritage. There will also be an informal presentation on the new collection by Sales Consultant Patrick Fairfield from the world-renowned brand. Presented for the first time in Scotland, the new Series 7 collection celebrates the design's natural beauty as the chair is brought back into its original form in a series of wooden veneer variations. The natural material was the original material chosen by Danish architect Arne Jacobsen to furnish the Series 7 design at its launch in 1958 and is an important part of Scandinavian design history.The nine new veneer finishes include: Maple, Ash, Beech, Cherry, Oregon pine, Elm, Oak, Walnut and Dark Stained Oak. Nine new colour variations are also being launched to complement the wooden veneers variations and these include: white, light grey, dark grey, black, yellow, orange, red, petrol blue and sage green. The colour variations are, furthermore, inspired by the original colour pallet developed by Arne Jacobsen for the design in 1968.

Modern Classic
STUA is thrilled to announce a new addition to its design furniture collection, the Laclasica chair. Designed by the company’s founder Jesús Gasca, Laclasica is a wooden chair that combines all the traditional principles of classical chairs, and translates them into a pure and contemporary design.
According to their website, “Laclasica is curvy like our human body and mimics its shape to convey its sensuality and cosiness. “A wooden chair is the ultimate design, using the noble and natural material provided by Mother Nature. And when combined with modern technology, in a sensual and fluid design, like the Laclasica chair, it becomes a piece of art and a beautiful furniture piece.”Laclasica is made of solid and molded ash plywood, and aluminum. Tangram is awaiting arrival of samples of the chair which will be available in the showroom soon. For enquiries please phone or email us on +44 (0)131 5566551 or info@tangramfurnishers.co.uk
