Description
Body is a design by Sylvain Willenz for Sancal. Its name directly refers to the inspiration behind the piece: the human body silhouette, reinterpreted through a backrest that evokes the natural curve of the spine and shoulders.
The shell, crafted from molded ash wood, is defined by organic, soft, and restrained lines. The curvature of the material and the expressiveness of the ash in its exterior finish give the chair character, reinforcing its natural identity.
Defying gravity, the cantilever base reinvents a classic silhouette. With modernist roots and an iconic rise in the 1970s, Sancal brings back this emblematic form with a contemporary approach.
