SUPERSTRAW
Osko + Deichmann
Lush seating
with Superstraw
If the Superkink by Osko + Deichmann can offer
soft padded comfort, why not add it to the Straw
family? Superstraw, both as a stackable chair and
as a high barstool, now comes with padded seats
covered in fabric or leather. The angular frames
with their kinked tubes might beg the question:
will they break? But, of course, Germans are quite
incapable of making things that do not work.
“Straw is interesting because of how materials
can be used in new, surprising ways,” say Olli
Diechmann and Blasius Osko in unison. And their
Straw family is of course a sacrilege: who would
imagine that tubular steel, the modernist symbol
par excellence, could be so easily bent at sharp
angles? ”It’s all about making the impossible
possible, and to show how steel can be used in
new, creative ways.”
