Cube Gallery: Embracing The Outdoors
As the warmer weather approaches, many of us are eager to embrace the outdoors and create the perfect alfresco living space. One exceptional outdoor product that deserves the spotlight is the iconic Landi Chair, a masterpiece of design by Hans Coray in 1938 for Vitra. Hans Coray, a visionary at the intersection of art, design, and architecture, valued functionality and simplicity, which is evident in this timeless chair.
The Landi Chair, designed by Hans Coray, was originally developed for the 1939 Swiss National Exhibition. Furthermore, it introduced a new typology of a three-dimensionally molded seat shell on a separate base. Its clear structure consists of two parts. A self-supporting frame made of U-shaped profiles connected by welded crossbeams, serving as both legs and low armrests. The second part is a seat shell featuring 91 punched holes. These holes not only reduce the chair’s weight but also give it a distinctive appearance. The result is a lightweight, stackable chair. It is robust and weather-resistant, perfect for outdoor use.
Hans Coray’s Landi Chair is a testament to technical innovation, optimal material use, minimalist forms, and understated elegance. Over the years, it has continued to captivate and enhance outdoor living, just as it did when it was first introduced.
For those looking to elevate their outdoor space, Cube Gallery offers a set of four Landi Chairs and the complementary Davy Table at a discounted rate for the summer. Designed by Michel Charlot The Davy Table is a light, aluminum table, perforated to accommodate a sunshade. This set, featuring the iconic Landi Chair at its heart, provides the perfect outdoor oasis for those who appreciate the fusion of classic design and modern functionality.
Embrace the alfresco lifestyle with these timeless designs and create your outdoor oasis this season.
