Opposites
Elsinga’s portfolio is characterised by contrasting styles and forms. Some designs might have round shapes and a more romantic / feminine feel - while others are more square / ‘mechanical’ and masculine.
So where does this apparent polarity stem from? Possibly it has its roots in the wide range of fields that inspire the work: from elegant natural forms to angular sci-fi robots ... from romantic art, to the platonic solids and more.
Our world is a symphony of form, a catalogue of shapes. Diverse and beautiful. In a reality where opposites attract and define each other. The light and the dark, the old and the new, the blunt and the gracious.
Bloem! // dining chair // 2015

Possibly the first chair design ever published with this type of undercarriage.
Within 2 years lookalikes appeared on the market ... this is the original design :)
Titan! // wingback chair // 2013
A fully upholstered version of this design was exhibited at Ventura Kortrijk.
