AT800 Folding Armchair by Normal Studio, France
Thought initially as an updated version of the classic teak folding chair, the AT800 series by Normal Studio is a statement in the kind of simplicity that comes only after hard design thought. The use of stamped aluminium for the seating instead of teak, speaks lots about functional design, a blend of nostalgia aesthetics and industrial production that is hard to come by.
Made from premium Burmese teak and aircraft grade powder-coated aluminium, this chair is durable in the harshest condition and has a timeless elegance, personified by its simplicity of structure. The flowing lines of smooth sanded teak frame sit nicely with the crispness of the white aluminium seat and back. Simply elegant and stunning in its presence.
From the same series as the AT800 folding teak/aluminium side chair and the AT800 stackable armchair and the AT800 tables with white legs.
