Beetle Dining Chair (padded)

Hard Shell, Soft Core: The Beetle Chair Series by GamFratesi

The Beetle series by the design duo Stine Gam and Enrico Fratesi—GamFratesi—is a perfect example of how nature serves as a model in the modern world. The idea for the Beetle series was born when GamFratesi took a detailed look at the anatomy and aesthetics of beetles. The two were particularly fascinated by the interplay between the insect’s shell and its inner workings: The hard shell protects and cradles the beetle’s vulnerable, soft interior, while also giving it an elegant look.
The Beetle series captures precisely these core elements: form, shell, hard exterior, soft core. Also available as the Beetle Chair without upholstery.

Inspired by nature

The duo developed the Beetle Chair series for the manufacturer Gubi . These comfortable chairs embody not only the appearance but also the versatility and timeless adaptability of their natural inspiration. Whether in the office or at home, indoors or outdoors, for dining, relaxing, or working: With its sturdy shell and soft, comfortable interior, the Beetle Chair promises timeless seating comfort. Available in numerous variations, materials, and colors.
