We were inspired by the product styling for this chair: its industrial profile in a bright color set against a patterned textile is a recipe for a very alluring and eclectic setting, in our book. If one element were missing, the effect just wouldn't be the same.

Powder-coated steel is punched and folded to resemble the frame of a utilitarian shelving system. These would instantly add an edge to more rustic, wood-focused decor.
