Noom Archipen chair, designed by Kateryna Sokolova, features flat legs twisted in different directions. Known for creating sculptural furniture, the Kyiv-based company handcrafted the distinct chair with a striking, artistic design without ornamentation or excess artwork. Instead, the chair focuses on calm and balanced proportions. The Archipen chair is ideal for any HORECA setting to create a visual focal point with cozy and minimalistic aesthetics of a functional seating piece.
The design of this chair references Archipentura, the historic first kinetic artwork created by renowned Ukrainian avant-garde sculptor Olexander Archipenko. Inspired by this kinetic artwork, the flat legs of the chair embody the moving slat effect. The rhythmic slats create an illusion of motion and a constantly shifting form when viewed from different angles. The straight edges with precise geometry give it a clean silhouette.
Crafted meticulously, each Archipen involves manual construction and a higher quality of finishing. Its structure maintains an adequate balance between its wooden framework and the space between the elements, giving it a sculptural character.
The artisanal furniture measures 2.6 feet in length and 1.8 feet in width, with a seat height of 1.5 feet. These space-efficient proportions make the chair ideal for an office, restaurant, or office cabin.

Made from solid Ashwood, the chair has a strong but lightweight framework. The designer used plywood to make its seat and backrest, available in a natural or stained finish. The leather or textile upholstery of the padded foam seating provides ergonomic support to your body.
The Archipen chair functions as a modern art piece and a functional seating object. The kinetic visual effect formed by twisted slats, its architectural geometry, and artistic, handcrafted quality give a sculptural appearance to the furniture. If you have a specific preference, the company offers plenty of customizable options for color and upholstery to suit your needs. The refined and sophisticated chair will elevate the aesthetics of your living space.
