An archetypal lounge chair, the F-Chair evolved out of the Marcel Gascoin's iconic C-Chair. Developed especially for the outdoors in close collaboration with Gascoin’s family from his original drawings, and supported by intensive research and prototyping. The harmonious interlocking between the armrests, the rear legs and the backrest took particularly high levels of craftsmanship to resolve. The F-Chair is optimised for the outdoors in both the ergonomics and the materiality. Proportions have been fine-tuned to maximise comfort and the frame has been carefully crafted with traditional joinery using plantation teak. The seat and backrest are tightly woven from an outdoor all-weather fibre made of an extruded polyethylene and twisted to resemble natural hyacinth woven furniture. The weave pattern creates triangle shapes from all four sides of the seat and backrest, converging at the centre of each like an envelope. The woven cord captures the natural look of the indoor version, while being durable enough to withstand the elements outside. Teak’s naturally high oil content allows it to stay in fantastic condition in even the harshest of climates, without additional treatment, developing a beautiful silvery patina over time.

Shop Brand >French designer Marcel Gascoin (1907-1986) was one of the leading furniture designers of the post-war era. He is recognised for the vital role he played in the reconstruction of France after the Second World War, when his modular storage units and matching sets of wooden furniture, which focused on clean aesthetics and functionality, became a staple for French households.
