Story
Crystals and minerals as the starting point
The Rock chair was inspired by the geometric structure of crystals and minerals, which occur naturally and create amazing, perfect shapes. Its edges give it visual impact and make it recognisable.
A streamlined seat on beech feet
Against those edges, the seat has a streamlined, ergonomic form. The shell is structural polyurethane, the feet are beech and the glides are nylon, and the chair comes in two versions with a matching shell and feet colour.
