New Masculo Chair launched
Following the 2009 launch of the Masculo lounge, Jacob Gubi and GamFratesi came up with the idea of producing a modern chair with armrest that would provide the natural comfort inherent in the lounge chair. The quality, aesthetics and sitting comfort, which are so successfully combined in the Masculo lounge, are now echoed in the Masculo chair.
"The extremely comfortable Masculo chair features armrests and has the potential to become a modern classic, whilst also being a strong addition to our Gubi Chair collection," says Jacob Gubi, CEO of Gubi A/S.
The new chair design is marked by contrast. The distinctive, expressive backrest expresses an almost aggressive masculinity, whilst the slender supporting metal frame simultaneously embraces sophisticated, quasi-feminine detailing.
Now, with a Masculo lounge and a new Masculo chair, we see the emergence of a new, potentially classic furniture series from Gubi.
