Concetto
With ZENSO, the designer duo at Formstelle have developed a family of chairs of sculptural character. The expressive wooden frame incorporates two floating circles, the seat and back of the chair.
Actually, the family of chairs should have been called Ensõ. The round circles follow the motif of the Ensõ, a symbol in Japanese calligraphy: Although the Ensõ is actually a symbol
and not a letter, it is one of the most common drawingin Japanese calligraphy. It symbolises enlightenment and elegance, the universe and the void, but also symbolises Japanese aesthetics in itself. As an “expression of the moment”.
In Zen Buddhist philosophy, painting the Ensõ represents the moment in which the consciousness is free, and body and soul are unfettered in their creative process. Usually, the ink is applied to either silk paper or rice paper in a single stroke. There is no possibility for modification: The Ensõ shows the state of mind at the moment of ist creation. Many Zen Buddhists believe that the artist’s character is fully reflected in how he draws the Ensõ. Accordingly, only a person who is mentally and spiritually complete is able to draw a true Ensõ. Some artists practise drawing the Ensõ every day as a spiritual exercise. From this inspiration the ZENSO family of chairs consisting of chairs, bar stools and loungers has emerged. The frame is made of solid wood, the seat and back shell consist of moulded wood and can be upholstered. The seat upholstery is always fully upholstered, the back shell
with an attached cushion. ZENSO LOUNGE always has an upholstered seat and back.

CREDIBILITY Plain and simple is good and precious ZEITRAUM isn´t just furniture, ZEITRAUM is an attiude to life and the things around us. The objects which accompany us through life should have character, whilst also being practical, adaptable and unobtrusive. They are a mirror and an expression of their owner, a servant and a friend. Our furniture is attractive because it is of good quality not because of designer frills. It impresses without dominating – exciting in its simplicity. QUALITY CREATES LONGEVITY If you don´t want to go with the flow. You need ideas. Our idea is quite simple – quality.Our furniture has to put up with a lot. Removals, decoration and even children´s parties.What it doesn´t put up with is design trends, which is good because its originality allows it to meet our changing requirements. Our design is a tribute to simplicity, to the purity of the materials, the constancy of the form. For furnitures which last more than a lifetime. ZEITRAUM furniture doesn´t age, it matures. WOOD – COMFORTABLE AND LIVELY The special glow of our timber is an invitation for both hands and eyes to follow its unique structure and grain. It doesn´t matter whether warm or cold, wood always feels comfortable. We can´t really see it because it lives very slowly. That´s impressive! Even more impressive is the fact that wood lives on after it has been felled – the floorboards creak, the walls groan almost as if they had just grown a new ring. THE SURFACES OF OUR FURNITURE ARE IMPORTANT FOR US. They have to look good, fell smooth and smell natural. We have to work hard to achieve this: the finely sanded surfaces are primed with oil and then sanded again prior to being hand finished with oil or beeswax balsam. This open-pore treatment allows the wood to breathe, absorbing and dispensing moisture from its surroundings. This treatment also prevents static, meaning that the surfaces don´t attract dust. PRODUCT CARE ZEITRAUM furniture is hand made with much care and is extremely robust. Looking after the furniture is therefore a simple task. In most cases wiping the surfaces with da damp cloth is all that´s required. An occasional oiling, or in the case of heavily abraded surfaces such as tabletops, waxing will keep the furniture looking great – you might even enjoy it!
