The 'Please Hold Up' chair has been designed by Stefano Bassan and Gianluca Sigismondi of the Finemateria design studio as a cubic sewing solution that balances function and form.
The chair is constructed with UP 40 polyurethane foam, which gives each of the seats a featherlight design despite featuring a rather bulky silhouette. The seat thus take up a fair bit of physical and visual space, while easily accommodating for them to be moved around to suit different tasks.
The 'Please Hold Up' chair is designed in a number of different orientations to suit a number of applications. The lightweight, soft and undulating design of the chair will make it perfect for placement in family homes with young children.
