Umomoku Armchair for Outdoor | By 3LHD

Umomoku is an unobtrusive and simply designed line of comfortable outdoor furniture intended for lounging. It was originally conceived for Mulini Beach in Rovinj and subsequently redesigned for sales in furniture stores. The furniture construction consists of broad and narrow wooden slats of a square cross-section that create a recognizable graphism in the design. Rich, sumptuous cushions create the visual identity of the entire collection. The modular nature of the Umomoku collection allows the users to combine multiple elements according to need, but also their individual use, both in the exterior and interior. It consists of an armchair, sofa, coffee table, bench, deck chair, and a tray.

3LHD

3LHD is an architectural practice focused on integrating various disciplines – architecture, urban planning, design, and art. Through a contemporary architectural approach, the team of architects deals with all projects in cooperation with many experts from various disciplines.
Projects, such as Memorial Bridge, Riva Waterfront, Sports Hall Bale, Hotel Lone, and Karlovac Freshwater Aquarium have established 3LHD not only in professional circles but also in wider public circles. The work of 3LHD has received important Croatian and international awards. 3LHD products were created as a response to the needs of specific architecture projects. With their aesthetics and function, they emerge from the spaces they were initially created for, but eventually, they separate from the project context and become independent products.

Prostoria

We tend to perceive furniture as something abstract, created on designers’ desks and then produced, branded and placed on the market by companies with different statuses and reputations. In fact, relations inside the contemporary globalized furniture industry are becoming more and more fragmented with less and less opportunity for complete dedication to synergies and collaborations… Prostoria, as a young company whose catalogue already comprises some new icons such as the Polygon armchair and the Revolve transformable sofa, stands as an example of a different and more traditional approach based on the evolution from the local factuality and logical clustering of all actors involved in the production process.

Rapid development of Prostoria, formerly known as Kvadra, a company which has come a long way, from “starting from zero” to positioning itself as the leader and promoter of new ideas in only a few years time, is a story about the reintroduction of continuity both in Croatia and Central Europe, a region with vital but insufficiently recognized design scene and remarkable tradition and knowledge of the furniture industry. Those elements served as latent potentials that provided grounds for continuation and had to be activated.

Since the beginning, Prostoria has been developing an integrative approach, functioning as a collaboration platform that nourishes and stimulates continuous exchange of knowledge and experience between all the actors participating in the production of furniture. A dynamic workshop ambience has been created offering opportunities mainly to young designers to explore their ideas in excellent conditions and bring them to the highest level of design, functionality and technological artisanship. Many products have been developed over longer periods of time surpassing a number of iterations until reaching their final form, which would be impossible without the adequate support combining the contemporary technology and meticulous craftsmanship and handwork of the highest quality. Predominantly local materials are used, especially solid wood, and most of the production takes place within the company itself or in collaboration with local cooperatives.

While the company’s catalogue also offers furniture based on tested models, Prostoria shows strategic and even passionate dedication to research-based design, convinced that authenticity has its place on the market but presents a special challenge in the times when it seems almost impossible to create truly innovative and fresh concepts. For that reason, Prostoria’s social responsibility and specific position have to be observed as a contribution to the evolution of design and readiness to take the risk in order to reach new values for the benefit of users and the culture. Thus, Prostoria stands as a project inside of which designers grow together with the company on the grounds of mutual trust and shared goals.
