Design Origin Story — NAAV
A Study in Balance.
Naav began with a simple challenge: how do you make the shape of a boat stand upright?
We knew from the beginning that Naav had to carry the unmistakable silhouette of a boat. But once the form was translated into solid teak, a new problem emerged — how could something so substantial, and so heavy, stand upright without losing the feeling of lightness in its shape?
Sometimes, the structure is the story.

Made with Intention
Solid Teak Wood
Used across generations of furniture making, teak is valued for its natural oils, durability and distinctive grain. Its strength and longevity make it ideal for a cabinet designed to endure.
Stainless Steel
Integrated into Naav’s construction to reinforce its substantial teak body, stainless steel provides structural strength and lasting stability.
Natural Red Pigment
A natural pigment stain developed in our workshop through repeated trials. Hand-mixed to bring out the teak’s grain, the signature red gives each piece its distinctive character.
