Spec Sheet

Description

Likened to the armchair in Bruno Munari's famed 1944 poster "Seeking Comfort in an Uncomfortable Chair," Ilse Crawford & Oscar Peña offer their own asymmetrical take. The designers say the comfortably bulbous seating comfortably accommodates casual sprawling, with one of Bruno's arms low enough for a leg or knee to rest. Cradled on an FSC European oak frame, the chair's curves all face inwards for a cocoon-like repose . Made at SCP’s specialist factory in Norfolk, England.

Brand

SCP

There are few true influential leaders in any industry, and when it comes to the UK’s native modern design scene, Sheridan Coakley has been at the forefront—even long before he founded his eponymous brand SCP in 1985 (the “P” is for products).

The flagship he opened that year in a former factory in the London neighborhood of Shoreditch—filled with SCP and a wide swath of other modern design houses—has transformed that corner of the capitol into a design mecca. SCP is a founding organizer of the Shoreditch Design Triangle, the largest official London Design Festival District, running since 2008.

Today, the SCP range of furniture, textiles, lighting and accessories is designed by the likes of Jasper Morrison, Terrence Woodgate, Donna Wilson, Philippe Malouin, Ilse Crawford and Oscar Peña, among many other notable creators. Even the SCP logo can rest on its laurels, having been created by the great graphic designer Peter Saville, whose iconic body of work includes the wavy pattern for Joy Division.

Sustainability is also part of its locally made ethos, extending to its upsholstery methods. In 2003, SCP vertically integrated its upholstery manufacturing based in Norfolk into the company, and it continues to champion a progressive environmentalism where it can.
