The Copenhague Chair is a simple design with an uncomplicated identity. Its design is based on a traditional trestle chair and its symmetrical frame reflects that. The Copenhague Chair is able to stack vertically allowing for infinite stacking.
Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, the Breton-born brothers, are the stars of European design and the most promising industrial designers to have emerged from France since Philippe Starck in the 1980s.
A combination of romanticism and functionality runs throughout both brothers’ work. Like all truly talented designers, the Bouroullecs have defined a distinctive visual style, which Jasper Morrison (one of the designers they most admire) described as “thoughtful and disciplined, with a real spirit and poetry”.
