SCAPE Awards of Excellence 2026 | Concept Product Design of the Year

We are proud to announce that Heini van Niekerk Architects’ Pavo Chaise has been shortlisted for Concept Product Design of the Year at the SCAPE Awards of Excellence 2026.

What began as an exploration of where furniture, sculpture, architecture and light become one has now been recognised alongside some exceptional South African design.

A chair. A sculpture. An architectural statement.

A huge thank you to our team for the creativity, passion and commitment behind what we do.

Art is Architecture®

Thank you to SCAPE for the recognition, and congratulations to all the fellow shortlisted designers.

Introducing the Pavo Chaise, designed by Heini van Niekerk Architects. A chair. A sculpture. An architectural statement.

The Pavo Chaise explores the space where furniture, sculpture, architecture and light become one.

By day, it celebrates transparency, shadow and materiality. By night, integrated lighting transforms it into a living architectural installation, changing the way a space is experienced.

Created under the philosophy of Art is Architecture®, the Pavo Chaise is intended not simply as a chair, but as an experience.
