Inspired by the structure of the Butterfly stool created by Sori Yanagi, this armchair expands the Garça family, which already includes a chair by designer Ilse Lang. In this outdoor version, the metal frame is powder-coated for added durability. The flexible seat provides excellent comfort. The legs detach, allowing for stacking, and assembly is done with just two screws that join the two parts of the armchair. There are no structural elements that create friction and compromise the perfect embrace of the body.
Wool provides breathability, eliminating the need for air vents, which would be necessary if the chair were 100% leather. In addition to natural ventilation, the combination of raw materials in the same tone creates interesting layers of texture for the piece – which is named Garça (Heron) due to its resemblance to the animal. With a slender design, thin and sophisticated legs, and a padded upper section, both in the back and the frame.

A 100% Brazilian design brand, we specialize in creating exclusive furniture pieces, each signed by one of 14 renowned designers under the curatorship of Clarissa Schneider.
We value care and delicacy—emotion and meaning. For us, every detail counts: from foam crafted with state-of-the-art machinery and raw materials sourced exclusively from Brazil, to partnerships that celebrate the richness of our cultural heritage.
Our creative process unfolds like a grand symphony, gaining rhythm with each stage—from sketching to sculpting, calendering to stitching, machining to cutting.
If the art of bringing furniture to life is akin to conducting an orchestra—with cutting-edge tools in the hands of a skilled team—then our store is a dance of interiors. Designed by Studio Arthur Casas, it was honored with the prestigious Building of the Year 2025 award.
Every choice contributes to a larger harmony. Volumes, proportions, geometries, and fittings—each element sparks dialogue and evokes a sense of meaningful complementarity.
