Scandinavian Tales

Nordic Tales - is an intimate studio specializing in interdisciplinary projects. Noteworthy is their Bright Spot lamp design, which illuminates, among other spaces, the airport in Arthus, Denmark. In the output of Nordic Tales we can find more realizations that attract architects and investors with their bold but, easy to arrange, versatile form. The designers boldly combine different styles of applied art - Modernism, Art Deco, Art Nouveau and the currently popular minimalist Japandi style.

Art history with nature in the background

Moth, or moth, is the only chair to appear in the Nordic Tales portfolio. Jonas Hoejgaard designed it without haste or the pressure of changing trends. Stylistically independent and bold. Being from A to Z an uncompromising realization of the designer's vision. In the shape of the furniture you can see a strong focus on detail and almost perfect refinement of the chair. Moth was inspired by the night butterfly, its shape, symbolism. Many directions in art drew ideas from the world of insects, dragonflies were beloved by Art Nouveau. This means that both the designer and the brand Nordic Tales also look for their inspiration in the rich history of applied art.

The success of independent thinking

As for the form of the oak chair, Moth hides a lot of unconventional solutions. The soft and smooth, yet boldly contoured backrest mimics the shape of moth wings. The winged back of Moth determines its uniqueness. On them there are double-sided decorative brass elements (like buttons), the backrest is also impressive from the back. In the places where the chair's frame is attached to the back we have decorative elements filled with cork, which is the only element that does not come from Denmark but from the cork manufacturer of the best French champagne! Color-wise, three shades of Moth wood are available - light and walnut shades of oak and black, while the legs, in addition to green, have recently been available in black.

Butterfly or bar moth?

Moth is a highly utilitarian chair. Nordic Tales, having experience of cooperation in investment projects, has prepared a special model of the Moth chair for orders larger than 30 pieces. It is a version in black oak with black legs. "Night Moth", through its decadent and dark charm, will find itself in this version in the interiors of exquisite types of restaurants. So far, Moth chairs have also been used to furnish conference rooms. In bright and light cafes, pastry shops, ice cream parlors shades of natural oak will work well. As soon as the sun goes down Moth chairs will impressively complement the interiors of clubs, bars, elegant pubs.

The collection of Moth chairs for architectural and development projects is offered by Pufa Design(www.pufadesign.pl), an online store and official distributor of the brand for Poland.
