Coconut Chair
Add to wishlist
Description
Experience the "freedom of movement" that defined a design generation. The Coconut Chair is celebrated for its shallow, triangular seat that allows you to lounge in any position—sideways, curled up, or seated upright. This model features a high-contrast white fiberglass shell paired with a cream-toned chenille fabric, a tactile material that adds "Visual Softness" to the chair’s sharp, geometric silhouette.
Architectural Form & Engineering
The chair’s identity is anchored by its triangular, one-piece shell, which integrates the seat, backrest, and armrests into a single fluid element. To mimic the three germination pores of a real coconut, the chair rests on a minimalist tripod base made of polished tubular steel, reinforced with fine crossbars for structural stability.
Key Features:
-
Iconic Designer Heritage: A tribute to Nelson’s philosophy of using everyday culture as a formal repertoire for high design.
-
Soft Chenille Upholstery: Provides a cozy, inviting texture that contrasts with the industrial fiberglass shell.
-
3-Legged Chrome Base: A "Space Age" tripod design that ensures stability while maintaining a light, airy footprint.
-
Ergonomic Freedom: The wide, shallow seat allows for a variety of seating postures, making it the perfect sculptural reading chair.
-
Museum-Grade Aesthetic: A silhouette featured in museums around the world, now updated for 2026 living.
