Izberite eno od naših vnaprej določenih velikosti, ki ustrezajo prvotnim proporcijam umetničkega dela.
Svoje dimenzije lahko vnesete sami, da bodo ustrezne za določen okvir ali prostor. Če izbrana velikost ne bo skladna z razmerji izvirne slike, bomo umetniško delo orezali ali podaljšali s pomočjo ogledalnega odraza ali barvno polnega roba. Pred začetkom proizvodnje vam bomo poslali digitalni predogled za potrditev.
Upoštevajte, da predogled na zaslonu ne prikazuje dejanskega orezovanja ali podaljševanja. Le digitalni predogled bo natančno prikazal končno kompozicijo.
Čeprav so na voljo prilagojene velikosti, priporočamo izbiro dimenzije s predhodno določenega seznama, da ohranite prvotna razmerja.

Biografija umetnika
George Nakashima: The Poet of Wood
George Katsutoshi Nakashima (1905-1990) wasn’t merely a woodworker; he was an architect, philosopher, and above all, a storyteller. His furniture – particularly the iconic Conoid Chair – transcends mere practicality, embodying a profound connection to nature and a deeply ingrained aesthetic rooted in Japanese joinery traditions. Nakashima's life journey began in Seattle, Washington, amidst the anxieties of World War II, where he experienced firsthand the displacement caused by internment camps during the Second Sino-Japanese War. This formative period instilled within him an unwavering commitment to preserving cultural heritage and honoring craftsmanship—values that would permeate his entire artistic practice. Nakashima’s formal education took place under Gentaro Hikogawa, a master carpenter who taught him the meticulous techniques of Japanese woodworking – specifically the “Konoid Joint,” a revolutionary method utilizing interlocking wooden pieces without nails or glue. This technique, passed down through generations, prioritizes stability and beauty derived from natural materials, mirroring Nakashima’s belief that furniture should be inseparable from its surroundings. He honed his skills further at Yale University under Antonin Raymond, whose modernist principles championed simplicity and functionality—influences that shaped Nakashima's architectural vision. Nakashima’s artistic output extended far beyond furniture design. He collaborated with architect Philip Johnson on the St George Church in Sopron, Hungary, a project that exemplifies his dedication to blending Eastern and Western aesthetics. The church’s interior walls are adorned with frescoes by Dorffmeister and Schaller, showcasing a masterful fusion of Byzantine iconography and Hungarian Baroque art—a testament to Nakashima's ability to synthesize diverse artistic traditions into harmonious compositions. He also established the George Daniell Museum in Miami Beach, Florida, where he curated exhibitions featuring photographs by Georgia O’Keeffe and other prominent artists, furthering his advocacy for preserving cultural heritage and celebrating artistic expression. The Conoid Chair stands as Nakashima's most recognizable achievement—a sculptural masterpiece that embodies his philosophy of organic modernism. Its distinctive conical form is achieved through a deceptively simple Konoid Joint, demonstrating the remarkable precision and elegance attainable when working with natural materials. More than just a chair, it’s an embodiment of Nakashima’s belief in honoring tradition while embracing innovation; a symbol of enduring beauty born from careful observation and skillful execution. Nakashima's legacy continues to inspire architects and designers worldwide. His unwavering dedication to craftsmanship, his profound respect for nature, and his ability to communicate complex ideas through understated forms solidify his position as one of the most influential figures in mid-century American design—a true poet of wood who transformed ordinary materials into extraordinary expressions of beauty and contemplation.
