Gascoin’s Fulfillment of French Functionality
Kursi legendaris C-Chair karya Marcel Gascoin pada tahun 1947 lahir kembali melalui versi terbaru dalam kolaborasi bersama jenama furnitur GUBI. Kursi yang terlihat dengan bentuk berkesan minimal elegan menjadi salah salah satu kebanggaan negara Perancis di era tersebut.

Bila pada edisi pertama C-Chair dibuat dengan dudukan dan sandaran yang terbuat dari papercord, dua edisi terbaru ini hadir dengan hand-woven paper cord seperti desain asli dari Garcoin dan veneer. Tak hanya menguatkan bagian estetika, C-Chair 2020 Edition ini pun memperlihatkan kepedulian sosialnya. Kursi terbuat dari oak wood yang bersertifikasi FSC, formaldehyde-free glue, dan bahan-bahan alami lainnya.

“The C–Chair is an iconic design, with such a spirit of generosity in its creation, that we couldn’t not put it back into production. It deserves its place in the pantheon of design classics and these new editions will only add to its growing reputation,” — Jacob Gubi, Owner and Creative Director, GUBI.
