Theodore Club Chair
THE DESIGN
Inspired by the bold geometry of 1970s Brazilian Modernism, our Theodore collection is a study in sculptural minimalism. Defined by its low-slung profile and expansive proportions, the chair’s architectural frame is master-crafted from solid, weathered teak. The design juxtaposes the raw, organic beauty of the wood with a sophisticated, tailored comfort, creating a silhouette that feels both grounded and effortless. Every angle reveals a new perspective of its rhythmic, slatted frame a tribute to the art of artisanal woodworking.
DETAILS

Theodore Club Chair
Designers Note
"With the Theodore collection, we wanted to explore the intersection of transparency and mass. The challenge was to create a silhouette that felt incredibly substantial and grounded, yet maintained an airy, rhythmic quality that wouldn't obstruct the landscape.
We looked to the pioneers of Brazilian Modernism, who used repeated vertical elements to create a sense of movement within static forms. Each slat is precision-cut and spaced to catch the shifting light throughout the day, casting architectural shadows that transform your outdoor space into an ever-changing gallery of geometry. It is a tribute to the raw power of teak—unadorned, sculptural, and built to endure for generations."
Theodore Club Chair FAQS
Our Theodore collection is crafted from sustainably harvested, Grade-A teak—a dense hardwood renowned for its high oil content and natural resistance to the elements. We leave the wood in its natural state to showcase the organic grain. Over time, when exposed to sunlight and moisture, the teak will undergo a graceful transformation, developing a distinguished silvery-grey patina that is the hallmark of authentic, high-quality teak.
While many of our clients prefer the weathered look, you can maintain the original warmth of the wood by applying a high-quality teak sealer once or twice a year. We recommend lightly sanding the surface and ensuring the wood is completely dry before application. For standard care, simply cleaning the frame with a soft brush and mild, pH-neutral soap is sufficient.
