The Coco Collection by OEO Studio was designed in response to a
self-initiated challenge by a studio known for working in wood. The
Coco design is an exercise in reduction, using tubular steel to create
the simplest possible chair frame. A sculptural seat and backrest
add a welcoming and human feel, and the collection – that is at once
minimalist and yet almost anthropomorphic – is named ‘Coco’ after
its distinctive feminine silhouette.
The collection with its clear signature now comprises six chairs in
total. The Coco Dining Chair, the Coco Dining Armchair, the Coco
Bar Chair, the Coco Lounge Chair, and the Coco Counter Chair – all
upholstered – are now joined by the new stackable veneered version
of the Coco Dining Chair, which has come about owing to demand
from dynamic interior spaces such as canteens and hotel banquet
halls where chairs need to be moved frequently. This new version can
be stacked up to 10 chairs high.
