The Malawi is a stunning addition to any room or patio, with its deep seats ideal for relaxing and reading.

Its unique shape adds comfort, style and originality to any space.
The Malawi is also available as a one-seater. The fabric shown here is suitable for outdoor or indoor. The colours might vary a bit from your screen.
Handmade from natural materials, each piece features gentle imperfections and tonal shifts as quiet signatures of its unique soul. To maintain its warmth and rich tone, simply apply a light coat of oil periodically.

The Idea
The Malawi Two Seater - Natural Black was drawn for The Duna Collection — which meant working inside the collection's rules before anything else: one material family, honest thickness, and no detail that exists only to be looked at.
The prototype went through the workshop three times. What survived is the version where nothing further could be taken away without the piece stopping working.
The Designer
Eddy Roothaert spends more time with suppliers than with drawings. If a timber cannot be traced, it does not enter a Studio Bizar collection.
That discipline sets the boundary the rest of the design work happens inside.
