The inspiration of the Beetle Stool was found in the insect world, as GamFratesi has been looking closely at the anatomy, aesthetics and movement of a beetle. The Beetle Bar Stool is now available with a polypropylene plastic shell, giving it a lighter expression with notable durability. The bar stool's subtle matte texture offers a soft tactility combined with outstanding sitting comfort.
GamFratesi Studio was founded in 2006 by Danish architect Stine Gam and Italian architect Enrico Fratesi. The studio is based in Copenhagen, though Gam and Fratesi are continuously traveling between Italy and Denmark for development and research of new projects.
Gamfratesi won the Young Designer Talent of the Year at the Elle Decoration International Design Awards 2013.
