“I originally designed Mårra to take advantage of the empty space above our couch for additional book storage. While sketching, I was inspired by a sofa designed in 1931 by Axel Einar Hjorth and incorporated his wavy edge, which informed much of Mårra’s final shape. Swedish pine was the obvious choice in this case. It is such a humble material, yet it performs far better than we usually give it credit for in furniture making.

What I find exciting about this piece is that its shape feels both soft and hard, with waves that abruptly end and create a sharp outward motion toward the opposite corners of the room. I wanted to accentuate that aspect with a dark surface treatment to contrast the ceiling, and I knew that black pigment, combined with a polished hard-wax oil, would also exalt the humble pine.

Mårra is made using sliding dovetails, a strong and elegant solution that removes the need for excessive glue. The shelf hangs on a French cleat, making the installation process easy and safe.” — Jakob Tangen
