ON Industriedesign COX Chair
A shell chair made of a new
material, a threedimensional molded plywood, based on the classic
plastic chairs of the last century (Saarinen, Eames, Stark).
COX combines
the comfort of an upholstered lounge chair with the warmth of wood in
an only 6 mm thin shell, molded into a form by high technology. COX
uses an innovative technology to mold a threedimensional deformation of
plywood in two ways:
- for a spheric-shaped characteristic in the
sitting area
- for "the curves" in the armrest-zone.
Only the
characteristic of a spheric forming makes it possible to create the
chair in this thin way. COX is innovative, significant, gracile and
beautiful by a fluent shape.
COX is comfortable in the sense of an
advanced ergonomical form. So you can see the roots in the plastic
shells of the last century, but the look is completely new.
And it
swivels like the tulip chair, although it has 4 slim legs.
