Roqa

The Challenge: Create a highly functional yet minimal seating element that would be cohesive in a variety of environments and blend with the look and feel of the space.

Problem Solved: Simple shapes and forms were the inspiration behind the Roqa series. With inspiration from the classic mid-century molded fiberglass designs of Saarinen and Eames who created timeless pieces with their graceful design forms, QDesign used the body as the mass of the chair and the base as more of a sculptural support element. The apex leg design was inspired by the bending and splitting of a tree branch.
