Hagu

Together with AB Concept, Gebrüder Thonet Vienna sought to design a new chair to evolve its bentwood her- itage while integrating a new material. The HAGU chair is equally at home in a residential or contract setting, including hospitality environments, offering something unexpected and fresh while expressing the brand’s aesthetic values. Elegant, lightweight, refined, and com- fortable even for extended periods, the chair features a slim metal frame that supports a plywood shell with an ergonomically angled, upholstered seat pad. The frame extends slightly further than the shell at the back, pro- viding an intuitive yet invisible “handle” for the staff to pull out the chair for a guest in a restaurant setting.
