FINN side table designed by Séjour Studio was first showcased in the second Ensemble Collective exhibition, Jeux d’Été. The FINN side tables invert traditional furniture creation: its distinctive shape is a direct result of advanced upholstery techniques and precise sewing savoir-faire, rather than the metal structure dictating the textile.
FINN places tactile engagement at its forefront, where its defining form, guided by a meticulously developed sewing pattern crafted from select fabrics or leathers, transforms the object from mere utility into a profound sensory experience. The design intently investigates the symbiotic relationship between the material's surface—its "skin"—and the underlying robust framework. Here, the jointing acts as "ligaments," actively shaping and influencing the foundational "bones" of the form.
The multi-faceted base, realized through the deliberate bending and deployment of aluminum sheets, consequently provides inherent stability and a visually dynamic presence. Its contours are not pre-determined, but rather emerge from the enveloping textile artistry, a testament to a unique design philosophy where soft aesthetics intricately inform rigid engineering.
This new iteration of the FINN Table introduces integrated D-link connectors beneath the tabletop, allowing the plateau to self-level once installed. This discreet system tensions the leather slipcover from within, achieving a consistently flat surface without relying on permanently fixed internal aluminum sheets.
The aluminum components remain part of the system, but are now removable—allowing the table to be disassembled for shipping, transport, or cleaning. This evolution results in a lighter, more flexible construction while preserving the table’s original stability and proportions.
The update refines FINN’s internal logic without altering its soft architectural presence, shifting the piece toward a more efficient, adaptable, and long-term construction.
