EJ45 Taco Chair by Erik Jørgensen is to be found in the exotic Mexican cuisine whose beautifully arched taco dorado shells are reborn as the dominating shape in both seat and back. The super-elliptical shells are placed in a geometrical grid that turns the chair’s silhouette into a harmonious shape hovering gently in the room it is placed.
Taco comes with many possibilities. For greater comfort, the seat as well as the back rest can be upholstered. This way of bringing the Taco chair to life is just one example of how you can easily match strict minimalism with perfect relaxation. The chair comes in many variations from the most basic version to a special upholstered edition with a built-in arm.
Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen’s trademark functionalism has made them a household name in the impressive canon of famed Danish designers. Regardless of what object they produce, an organic mode of expression is always discernible – as is an uncompromising demand for absolute quality in all links of the production process. Throughout the years, the Danish duo has enriched the Erik Jørgensen brand with outstanding furniture, and Taco is no exception.
Established in 1997, Cult (formerly Corporate Culture) formed to provide not only exceptional designer furniture, but also a high level of customer service, a combination not yet experienced in the Australian marketplace.
In his endeavours since then, company founder and director Richard Munao has built one of the most comprehensive collections of brand partners in Australia and New Zealand. Cult has grown from its first location in Sydney to now include showrooms in Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland as well as distributors in Canberra, Adelaide and Perth.
In addition to founding Cult, and supporting strong international partners like Fritz Hansen, Carl Hansen & Son, &Tradition, HAY and Gubi, Richard is actively involved in discovering and mentoring emerging Australian and New Zealand design talent. As founder of Cult’s Design Journey Competition, which began in 2004, Richard gives designers throughout Australia and New Zealand the opportunity to have their designs prototyped and put into production.
