Chairs

Petit Standard

 

The result of an eight-year journey, Daniel Rybakken's Petit Standard is a study in precision and considered details. With the objective of creating a highly stackable chair, where the stackable features would actually enhance the chair's design, Petit Standard fuses elegance and functionality in an iconic design. Using die-cast aluminium and steel tubes that connect into a three-dimensional triangle, the lightweight frame has a distinctively geometric silhouette, which is counterbalanced by the warmth and natural quality of the oak-veneer seat and backrest. The high back and curved seat ensure great comfort, while the rigid tubing optimises the chair's strength and stacking ability, making it ideal for corporate environments, educational institutions, and private settings.
