Porto Chair No3 is a solid walnut chair by Project 213A, part of the Project 213A Collection launched in 2024.
The chair's base departs from conventional four-leg construction: two inward-curving supports meet at the floor, creating an open architectural arch beneath the seat. The proportions are deliberately solid, with a thick rectilinear seat and a slightly angled backrest that reads as a flat geometric plane. The medium-dark walnut grain runs continuously across all surfaces, so no two chairs share the same pattern.
Hand carved in solid walnut by skilled artisans in Northern Portugal, each Porto chair is produced in Project 213A's in-house wood workshops, where traditional carving techniques remain central to the process.
Porto Chair No3 is one of eight designs in the Project 213A Collection, each exploring a different graphic backrest shape and structural leg configuration worked from the same solid walnut block.

About
Project 213A
Project 213A is a Portuguese design house founded in 2021 by Jurgita Dileviciute, Theresa Marx, and Clement Deboeuf. The name comes from a London address where each founder lived at separate points during their studies, a shared geography that preceded their professional collaboration.
The idea for the studio took shape during the 2020 lockdown, when the three founders combined their professional backgrounds to build something together. Project 213A has operated from in-house ceramic and wood workshops in Northern Portugal since its launch, working alongside skilled local artisans whose traditional craftsmanship shapes every piece in the catalog.
The studio's design philosophy is built around durability over trend. Each object is made to last decades, not to fit a particular season's aesthetic. Collections carry the names of Portuguese cities and regions, a practice that grounds the work in the territory and the communities whose making traditions the brand draws from.
The range spans handcrafted ceramics and handmade wooden furniture, both produced locally with artisan techniques developed over generations in Northern Portugal. This focus on Portuguese craftsmanship and material integrity distinguishes Project 213A within the contemporary European design studio landscape.
Pieces by Project 213A are available on Monde Singulier as part of the collectible design catalog.
