CHESS

DESIGN BY morena cotterle

Games envisioned by Architect Morena Cotterle are created to be unique pieces in their design and material usage. Crafted entirely by hand in a combination of two contrasting materials, they form sculptures to showcase when not in use.

Chess is an ancient strategic board game known worldwide. Handcrafted in a combination of solid wood, featuring thermotreated oak and mahogany, the varying levels between the chessboard squares add three-dimensionality and emphasize the materials used. The pieces draw inspiration from Kanji, Japanese ideograms, for their shape and intricate details, contributing to the elegance in design.
