Capsule Leather Chair Price on request

Jakub Kubica — Available through The Orb

Handcrafted in the atelier near Berlin, the Capsule Leather Chair embodies the balance between sculptural form and everyday function. Designed for versatility, it serves equally well as a dining or work chair, combining refined craftsmanship with lasting comfort.

The hand-sanded aluminium frame is polished with natural beeswax, creating a soft sheen that resists fingerprints while developing a subtle patina over time. Its gentle flex offers adaptive back support, responding organically to movement.

The seat is upholstered in full-grain, vegetable-tanned leather from Tuscany, chosen individually for each chair. Dyed through, wax-finished, and tumbled for a supple touch, the leather evolves beautifully with use, acquiring a unique depth of character over time.

Jakub Kubica , Refined Brutalism - The Poetry of Tension and Form

Jakub Kubica is a Slovak-born, Berlin-based artist and designer whose practice moves fluidly between sculpture, performance, and collectible design. Coming from a formal art education and a background in experimental, conceptual work, Kubica arrived at object-making organically — as an extension of his artistic explorations rather than a separate discipline.

In his studio-workshop on the outskirts of Berlin, he builds each piece by hand, treating the space as a small universe where materials, gestures, and ideas merge. His objects carry a distinctive poetic tension: raw stone meets precisely cut aluminum; natural irregularity contrasts with industrial clarity. What began as intuitive sculptural experiments has evolved into a body of refined, sophisticated furniture and functional objects — yet each retains the immediacy and honesty of the artist’s hand.
