Beetle Lounge Chair

Overview

The Beetle Lounge Chair is the lounge chair of GUBI's Beetle collection, credited to GamFratesi with a design year of 2013 on the product page. GUBI describes it as a comfortable design with a generously proportioned silhouette. It is listed under Seating, Lounge Chairs, and the page suggests adding the Beetle Ottoman to complete the seating.

Construction

The page shows the chair fully upholstered on a conic base with standard glides. The representative item, 10091860, has a Brass Semi Matt base and Around Bouclé by Dedar (004).

Specifications

Overall size for item 10091860 is 62 cm wide, 78 cm deep and 76 cm high (24.4 x 30.7 x 29.9 in). The page gives its weight as 36.8 lb.

The four-legged insect

GUBI says the chair carries strong references to GamFratesi's inspirational source, the four-legged insect. The page says the design reinterprets what characterises a beetle's sections, namely their shape, shells and sutures, and the pairing of a rigid outside with a soft inside.

A generous seat for relaxing

The product page calls the Beetle Lounge Chair the perfect lounge chair for relaxation in a contemporary home, and points to the wide range of upholstery options as the way to match the interior.
