The Wedge | The wedge as a starting point
“Get in the thin edge of the wedge” (go snuggle on the couch)
The wedge is one of man’s first and most important inventions. It is a simple yet extremely effective accessory that is used frequently to split wood, attach objects or provide support.
Linde Hermans designed a new creative seating concept with the wedge as a starting point for Belgian design label INDERA. In the Wedge armchair, a wedge and wedge-shaped cushions provide ergonomics and modular seating comfort. With this, the chair can be fully attuned to the user’s personality. By sliding the elements in relation to each other, you can play with the height and depth of the back.
All parts can be produced in the same material if so desired, but the choice of fabric or leather can also be exchanged for the seat, back and side panels and cushions.
The combination of various types of fabric and leather creates a play of material and texture. The result is a strongly graphical piece that exudes personality and craftsmanship.
