With the introduction of the un-upholstered Beetle Chair, the collection
has bloomed into a chair series with unlimited possibilities. The
Beetle Chair is no longer only an upholstered chair but also available
with a polypropylene plastic shell, giving it a lighter expression with
notable durability at a lower price point. The chair’s subtle matte
texture offers a soft tactility where its outstanding sitting comfort is
obtained. Thanks to the wide spectrum of colour and base options, the
un-upholstered Beetle is an ideal solution for both formal and informal

of the chair reinterprets the characteristic elements of the beetles’
sections: shape, shells, sutures, rigid outside and soft inside.
