The front upholstered Beetle Chair holds the same soft core as the fully upholstered version, giving it an outstanding comfort while the contrasting outer in polypropylene plastic functions as a protective shell. The Beetle can exude a personal adornment with an upholstery of your choice.
Due to its unique design, the front upholstery can also be changed with time to give the chair a different expression and new life to the interior decoration. GamFratesi has reinterpreted the characteristic elements of the beetles' sections when designing the Beetle Chair: shape, shells, sutures, rigid outside and soft inside. The comfortable yet dynamic design makes the chair suitable for multiple environments whether it is in the home or the workplace.
The Gamfratesi studio was created by Danish designer Stine Gam and Italian designer Enrico Fratesi. Their work combines different influences, from classic Italian Design to Scandinavian traditions. The Beetle chair is inspired by the shape of the scarab. The seat and back are made from two padded shells with curved lines like the insect's shell.
The slim, tapered legs in black chromed steel make reference to a beetle’s legs. All these elements are perfectly connected and crafted in a fluid manner. In this version, the inner seat is padded and upholstered in a beautiful English-style fabric giving it very refined, glamorous style. The Beetle chair is at home in different environments: around a dining table, behind a desk, at home or at work. The Beetle padded chair comes in other colourways and finishes.
