Chair of the Day: Moooi’s Clip Chair
I’m seeing some interesting folding chairs these days. I saw Cappellini’s new Stitch Chair in Milan last Spring.¬† Now, Blasius Osko and Oliver Deichman have introduced The Clip Chair for Moooi.
Clip is made of wood and folds flat. As the designers said, “Whilst strolling around a Bulgarian market, a small, fold-able basket caught our attention. Single slats were beaded on ropes to form 2 hinged surfaces, which could be transformed into a curved 3 dimensional object. We improved this stunning mechanism, both technically and visually, to create a fold-able lounge chair – the ‘Clip Chair’. When open, it’s straight identical slats form a spacious seating space of supreme comfort. This simple design not only makes the chair highly practical, but also creates a sculptural object of outstanding aesthetic value, whether folded or open.” Neato.
You can find this chair and all things Moooi at my friend, Joe Posch’s shop, Mezzanine right here in Detroit. Or, shop online at Unica Home. The Clip Chair sells for about $1,300.
