ICYMI: 'All hands were on deck:' Ontario company tasked with designing chairs for Pope visit

Beginning with wood from maple and oak trees, the designers bring to life sketches that were put to paper a month ago.

Quality and Company, a custom furniture manufacturer based in Maple, Ont., was commissioned to make the one-of-a-kind pieces. In the end, the team constructed two different designs for the chairs using specs provided by the Vatican to accommodate the Pope’s mobility issues. Designers used four different stains and six different fabric and embroidery patterns. It also worked with Metis graphic designer Shaun Vincent to incorporate a logo he designed for the papal visit, which features animals moving in a circle.

The theme of the papal visit is “Walking Together.” It is to include public and private events with an emphasis on Indigenous participation. It’s expected the pontiff will deliver an apology at the former site of the Ermineskin Indian Residential School in the community of Maskwacis, Alta. — expanding on the apology he gave to Indigenous delegates at the Vatican in April.
