Orbit Plastic Stacking Chair

Design Ross Lovegrove
Plastic or wood seat, chrome legs
Made in USA by Bernhardt Design

Building upon classic designs by Charles Eames, Arne Jacobsen and Norman Cherner, Ross Lovegrove created the sensual, organic and sculptural Orbit stacking chair that can be dressed up with wood around a dining table, or be whimsical in plastic with a bold color.

Ross Lovegrove studied design at Manchester Polytechnic and subsequently trained at the Royal College of Art in London. At frog design, he contributed to the design of the Sony Walkman and Apple computers. As an in-house designer for Knoll International in Paris, Lovegrove worked on the Alessandri office system. As a co-member of the Atelier de Nimes, along with Philippe Starck and Jean Nouvel, he acted as a design consultant to Luis Vuitton, Cacharel, Dupont and Hermés. In 1990, he created Studio X in London. Lovegrove is inspired by forms of the natural world, the possibilities of new manufacturing techniques and the ability to evoke an emotional response in users.

The Orbit stacking chair features chrome legs, gray stacking bumpers and stacks six high. The seat is offered here in plastic but also available with wood in a variety of finish options. Orbit is Level 1 & Greenguard certified.
