<strong>The</strong> River Chair is weatherproof and designed with a built-in water<br />

drainage system that makes it ideal for outdoor use.<br />

With furniture design and<br />

architectural projects in various<br />

parts of the world, Mac Stopa<br />

has built a body of work<br />

that beautifully incorporates<br />

mathematics and geometry in<br />

every piece. An award-winning architect and designer, Mac’s<br />

passion for modularity, sculptural shapes and digital arts<br />

drives him to create modular art that introduces innovation<br />

to a space and allows users to interact with the piece.<br />

His work spans various disciplines – architecture, interior<br />

design, industrial design, graphic design, art and fashion –<br />

with multinational corporations a big part of his clientele.<br />

Visitors to Warsaw, the capital city of Poland can view some<br />

of his architectural projects including the futuristic building<br />

housing the Genesis restaurant, and Art Walk, an organicshaped<br />

open-air art gallery. Both are part of the European<br />

Square located in downtown Warsaw, which also includes<br />

the Warsaw Spire office complex for which Mac designed the<br />

buildings’ modern lobby interiors.<br />

He is also behind the design of the Warsaw Hub,<br />

a transportation centre – connected to subway stations,<br />

restaurants and offices – that is still under construction.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sculptural shape and organic curved lines on the<br />

River Chairs resemble the pattern of waves in the sand,<br />

sculptured by wind and water.<br />
