Attached to the curved arms of the Tropique Dining Chair,
the seat and backrest are upholstered with Leslie Jacquard
fabric, developed exclusively for GUBI. Made especially
for outdoor use and GreenGuard-certified, this elegant
textile is comfortably flexible while being durable and sun-
resistant – crafted to last through many seasons in the sun.
Hung, hammock-like, across the frame, the textile seat
maximizes comfort by responding to the contours of
the body, with additional support provided by the foam-
padded backrest.
Available in either black or white, the frames of the chair –
and the companion Tropique Dining Table – are formed from
slender stainless steel rods, with a characteristic curve at
each of the four feet, echoing the arc of the armrests.
One of Mathieu Matégot’s favorite of his own designs –
chosen to furnish his own apartment – Tropique embodies
the lightness and leisure of outdoor living. The perfect way
to furnish the summer, whichever color one chooses.
