A shape conceived from childhood memories reinvented into a plastic chair
Stellar (stĕl′ər) [derived from the Latin word Stellaris] “Relating to, involving, or resembling a star or stars, or comparable with stars for beauty and quality”. In this case, a timeless design meant to be used on a daily basis, where its stellar lines serve both a functional and aesthetic purpose. A shape conceived from childhood memories, where the comfort of those traditional wooden school chairs from the 1950s with their humble, functional use of materials has been reinvented into a 21st-century stackable monoblock plastic chair. The strong lines shared with modern fighter planes and military decorations are decontextualized and put together to form a peaceful inviting multi-functional design. The star-like, triangular volumes on the rear and bottom parts emphasize the load-bearing function of these structures and form a pleasant aesthetic contrast with the soft and welcoming ergonomics of both seat and backrest. Stellar is offered in a delicately textured glass fiber reinforced polypropylene, and available in five different colors: white, black, light grey, anthracite and mint green.
