Story
Joining, numbering, stacking
Walter Knoll describes the Yunity evo as a companion for moments when people come together. A row connector, seat numbering with magnetic elements and stacking up to 15 chairs give order and flexibility, and armrests can be retrofitted.
Brief from EOOS
The EOOS project page says Walter Knoll lacked a stackable chair that could be joined in rows and numbered, with or without armrests, using fully separable and recyclable materials at low cost. EOOS answered with two identical pairs of thin tubular steel legs and a replaceable cover with a sewn-in 3D mesh.
