Called Chassis, Wilkhahn and Stefan Diez have created a multipurpose chair whose name says it all. It does not simply suggest the elegance of sports cars - Chassis is actually made like them too. For the first time in history, a chair frame has been produced using industrial space-frame technology. The chair's form has an exciting fluidity with all the ecological advantages that the materials and manufacturing procedure offer. The same applies to the thin seat and backrest shell, captured within the frame like a form-fit membrane.
The load-bearing structure and shell fuse to become an appealing whole. Lucid, but still organic, contoured but still lightweight, technically precise, but still natural. A really special chair for studios and meetings, cafeterias and work benches. A chair with the potential to become an enduring favourite.
Chassis is a four-legged, multi-purpose chair, weighing just 5.4 kilos. It is produced from two, easy-to-recycle materials: the frame is made of high-efficiency sheet steel, black, white or grey powder coated, the unitary detachable seat and backrest shell consists of finely grained, through-dyed polypropylene in a matching colour. The plastic glides are suitable for both hard and soft floorings. Up to four chairs can be stacked.
