Brooklyn, New York, USA
Distinguished by its flowing form and bound by its rectangular outline, Nicholas Baker Studio’s Super Chair is a stackable monobloc chair originally inspired by the idea to create a chair that could be recognized by its silhouette.
Super Chair has been awarded a 2023 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Nicolas Baker used virtual reality to design the chair by pushing and pulling the form from a single plane.
The diagonal line through the profile adds a distinct dynamism that contrasts the surface of the front view.
The chair is designed for indoor and outdoor environments, and it has been tested and certified as weather-resistant.
It is also intended for the retail and contract market. It fits well in living and dining rooms as well as in board rooms, restaurants, and events venues.
Super Chair is available in seven colors: white, black, gray, yellow, amaranth, blue, and leather, and upon specific request it is possible a color customization.
Super Chair is entirely made in Italy by SPM S.p.a., an Italian company specializing in the design and construction of molds and the production of thermoplastic products.
The chair is produced with injection molding technology with a Silky finish to add a sophisticated and matte aspect and a soft touch to the surface.
Super Chair is made of 100% recycled and recyclable polypropylene using the patented RE-LIFE® technology to obtain raw material from the recycling of offcuts and industrial waste without the use of fossil resources.
This technology makes it possible to create environmentally friendly products that not only do not use new fossil resources but also clean up the system from scraps and industrial waste, reprocessing them into raw materials.
