Catifa Carta: Redefining Beauty Through Sustainable Innovation and Emerging Technology

Discover how design, sustainability, and emerging technology has converged through the evolution of the iconic Catifa 53 chair by Arper, re-imagined for a new era using cutting-edge materials and sustainable practices.

Introducing Catifa Carta, a reimagined version of the Catifa 53 chair featuring a shell made from PaperShell, a revolutionary material composed of 100% biogenic wood by-products. PaperShell not only enhances the chair’s aesthetic appeal but also dramatically reduces its environmental footprint. Through advanced material science, this innovative material acts like a tree, sequestering carbon dioxide during its life cycle. At the end of its life, PaperShell can be reduced to biochar, successfully retaining the carbon sequestered during its previous life phases, setting a new benchmark for eco-conscious design.

Catifa Carta’s creation exemplifies how emerging technologies in material innovation are driving sustainable design forward. The fusion of design, technology, and sustainability aligns perfectly with ADW’s curatorial theme, Chance + Change, as the panelists explore how innovation is transforming the design landscape. This chair not only embodies style but also represents a responsible approach to environmental impact.

Join Harrows for a session that delves into how emerging technologies and innovative materials like PaperShell are shaping the future of design. Attendees will gain insights into how this new material is pushing the boundaries of furniture design, ensuring that beauty and sustainability can coexist in the modern world. Catifa Carta is not just a chair; it’s a symbol of what’s possible when technology and nature meet.
