Canela was designed to be a comfortable yet striking and elegant piece of furniture. The traditional joinery ensures that it's rigidity is derived from the structural design and not the thickness of the components, allowing these to be kept 'light' and delicate. The introduction of copper against the dark wood helps to set it apart visually, particularly from behind.
