Branka

Design by

Design Studio

A versatile chair, easy and strong, made to withstand everyday contract wear and use. Meet Branka, meaning "bow" in Basque. Ships have always set sail from our territory with their bow pointing towards the immensity of the seas, strong and inexorable, unstoppable by any obstacles. This tribute to our marine past and present, to the bravery and hardiness of our "arrantzales" (fishermen and women), is represented in Branka.

A chair capable of meeting any challenges thrown at it: with tremendously strong joints, and with a resistance and durability that can withstand (almost) anything. And yet also easy to assemble, easy to manufacture and easy to upholster. A chair with our complete DNA which, immediately it was created, comfortably entered the Akaba catalogue, with elegance and reliability.
