S079 A chair with overal understated simplicity yet with expressive accents.
Refinement in the detailing and finishing such as the rounded frame-ends, and…
for this chair we developed a special fixation that resembles a button while securing the backrest to the frame, providing a cosy, enriching and invisible means of fixation, without the oftentimes atmosphere-disruptive technical looking features such as bolt or screw-heads.

Instead of a technical looking (hex) screw, commonly used in fixating components to a frame, we developed a special button-screw, that combines the same functionalities but with added anti-tamper, and more expressive character. Unexpected when used in the wooden backrest variant, showing & emphasizing the softness of the upholstered version.
Button-screw detail in the wood backrest variant.
Playfully curved frame, with an invisible connection of the backrest to the frame, for a clean look without distractions, finished with soft rounded ends at the top.
