Sancal PALMA Wooden armchair with metal frame

PALMA is a small wooden armchair with a metal frame, designed by Marc Morro.‎ Palma is an exercise in constructive honesty.‎ Its name is a tribute from Marc Morro to his hometown, Palma de Mallorca, a gesture that speaks of roots and the humility of an object designed with the aspiration of traveling far while carrying its origin with it.‎ Sancal has recovered this design from Morro’s personal archive to evolve it towards a comfort piece to be enjoyed.‎ The raw spirit of the original piece remains, but it is balanced with a friendly language that softens its structural force.‎ The architecture of the armchair is defined by a tubular metal structure upon which the curved surfaces of the seat and backrest rest, made of curved plywood slats.‎ The generous solid ash armrests add a warm, organic counterpoint.‎ To enhance comfort, Palma offers an optional cushion that integrates discreetly between the slats, keeping the constructive nakedness that makes this piece unique, always visible.‎ Both wood and metal can be customized by colouring them using Sancal’s extensive palette.‎ This chromatic freedom amplifies its expressiveness, allowing the piece to move from a more sober character toward fresher, more spontaneous, and contemporary interpretations.‎ Further info from manufacturer on PALMA Sancal
