Milano Design Week 2025

Fuori Dentro Chair
Stephan Bastrup-Birk

About the design
The intention was to create a light and fresh look with a sturdy yet comfortable feel.
The frame is made of brushed aluminum, along with ribs that encase upholstered pads in clear green leather. The ribs are spaced proportionally to create airiness and let the aluminum shine from multiple angles.
It is also enjoyable to sit on. The total upholstered area is smaller and therefore has firmer cushioning, slightly softer in the back and on the front pad. Weight 7,5 kg.

Due to its characteristics and development in Milan from Italian suppliers the chair is called Fuori Dentro, which is Italian for outside inside.
It will be produced to order. Send an e-mail to contact@designforces.eu for further information.
