Newood Side Chair
Made by Cappellini
Brogliato Traverso designed the Newood Side Chair for Cappellini as a study in structural economy. Solid ash wood is shaped into a frame of deliberate slenderness, where the grain itself becomes part of the visual language.
The silhouette is spare without being cold. Each joint and taper reflects a considered approach to weight and form, resulting in a chair that reads as both architecturally precise and quietly warm.

Frequently Asked Questions
What wood is used in the Newood Side Chair?
The Newood Side Chair is constructed from solid ash wood, chosen for its fine, consistent grain and structural strength. The bleached ash finish allows the natural character of the wood to remain visible while lending the frame a refined, lightened tone.
Who are the designers Brogliato Traverso?
Brogliato Traverso is a Venice-based design duo formed by Fabio Brogliato and Tiziana Traverso. Their practice is known for work that balances formal precision with material sensitivity, and they have collaborated with leading Italian manufacturers including Cappellini.
Is the Newood chair suitable for dining use?
Yes. Its proportions and solid ash construction make it well suited to dining contexts, though its restrained silhouette also integrates naturally into living or workspace settings.
How does Cappellini approach wood furniture production?
Cappellini works with skilled Italian craftspeople and rigorously selected manufacturers to ensure that construction details, joinery, and finishing meet the standards of the brand's broader design program. Wood pieces are typically shaped and finished by hand at key stages.
What design tradition does the Newood chair belong to?
The Newood chair sits within a lineage of Italian rationalist furniture design, prioritizing structural logic and material clarity over ornamentation. Its slender ash frame draws on a mid-century tradition of finding elegance through reduction rather than addition.
