Neuchatel, Switzerland

The chair design in Ini Archibong’s Iquo Café Collection by Knoll features a sleek, curved silhouette, and one continuous frame that’s both light and resilient.

Designer Ini Archibong’s West African heritage energizes Knoll’s modern design legacy in this corresponding set of tables and chairs.

The Iquo Cafe Collection has recently been awarded a 2022 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.

The collection—which provides a place to gather both indoors and out in hospitality spaces, offices, and on campus—is named after three generations of Archibong women who share the name Iquo.

The chairs come with or without arms and can be stacked six high on the floor.

Available in five colors, the chairs feature a black, textured polypropylene frame, and the indoor chair can be upholstered with textiles and leather.
