With the Coco chair, OEO Studio wanted to combine charismatic design with a high level of comfort. Produced by Gubi, the chair has references to industrial design, fashion and Bauhaus, but the main inspiration comes from the desire to create a simple and elegant chair using a minimum of materials and tools without compromising on design. The result is a chair with an elegant silhouette whose soft curves bring a feminine touch. It is this feminine aspect that gave it the name Coco, a name full of character and references.Gubi has thus produced a chair with a unique and welcoming personality that blends in with different styles of places, whether they be pure atmospheres or imposing and refined worlds.
