Bat Lounge Chair, Fully Upholstered
Design by GamFratesiThe Bat Lounge Chair with a 4-star base is echoing a natural balance between corporate necessity and formal elegance hence perfectly suited for both public and private contexts. The lounge chair holds strong references to the interesting characteristics of bats, with its inviting, distinctive shell reminiscent of the shape of a bat’s wingspan. The Bat Lounge Chair with a 4-star base is created with a Scandinavian approach to crafts, simplicity and functionalism while also carrying a strong embedded story and associations expressed in a minimalist idiom.
The Bat Chair is available in a wide range of configurations, making it suitable for diverse settings. From the classic Dining Chair in multiple shell colors and bases, to the fully upholstered version that allows the front textile to be updated over time, the design encourages personalization and longevity. The Outdoor edition adapts the same iconic form with UV protected materials and optional outdoor upholstery, while the Meeting Chair introduces a height-adjustable swivel base tailored to the modern workplace. Together, the Bat Chair collection offers a cohesive design language that moves effortlessly between private, public, indoor, and outdoor environments.
Gamfratesi
GamFratesi has been working with GUBI since the inception of their studio and the development of the Beetle Chair. With their own dual heritage, Italien Enrico Fratesi and Danish Stine Gam share GUBI's ability to synthesize seemingly opposing ideas - the classic and the contemporary, the intellectual and the sensual, the understated and the expressive, the manufactured and the unique. These juxtapositions, as well as the boldness and curiosity that drives their desire to find inspiration in unfamiliar territory, are epitomized in the Beetle.
