As children, my brothers and I were very fond of listening to grandfather's stories about life, begging for them at any opportunity, perched on the floor around the chair. And with which he spoiled us from time to time, slowly leading the unhurried thread of the story, with distractions to detailed details, sitting on his chair - the same lover of stories of the past. Inspired by childhood memories, we took on the reincarnation of an archaic object that has become such a close and mute witness to growing up for us. In our interpretation, the heroes of the past come to life like a chameleon, coloring themselves in the surroundings of the scene of the story. Working through the details of the collection and finishing materials, we created four brutal archetypes from the stories of grandfather, associated with the activities we remember: Savant (engineer), Lumberer (lumberjack), Farmer (peasant), Aviator (pilot). Abandoning the classic image, we left an open look, clear content and comfortable fit at the heart of the form, naming the collection a pleasant invented word Tuttu. TUTTU Lumberer is the personification of a brutal man who imitates the generations of fathers and grandfathers, cultivating his virility, while possessing a subtle intellect, to whom reasoning about the eternal is not alien. When creating the image, a deliberately rough retro style was chosen: dense khaki canvas fabric, contrasting stitching, elements of thick belt leather. It arose from the demand for a return to masculinity, the interest of men in outdoor life, the desire for manual domestic labor, and as an antithesis to modern trends in favor of male effeminacy. Removable cushion, fastened with buttons, has an outer and inner cover for easy care. The back of the TUTTU Lumberer resembles a hiking backpack, with leather elements, a pocket for useful little things, and there is also a book holder under the chair. This is our joint development together with the craft workshop Stas Litvinov Studio. Designer: Sergey Lvov. Year of creation: 2019
