The new Chariot by GamFratesi is a convenient and eye-catching trolley inspired by the wagons of ancient civilizations. Coming in three varieties, red, white and wood grain, the Chariot acts as a mini table with wheels that can be dragged around the household and used for storage, a place to eat your meals, as well as other functions. Following the chariot metaphor, since users must pull the furniture piece with their hands, I guess that likens them to horses, but I digress.
When you break down the design, Chariot by GamFratesi is actually comprised of a few basic geometric shapes, as demonstrated by a diagram included in this gallery. Circles, rectangles and triangles were all that were needed to piece together this contraption. It speaks of the Copenhagen designers’ ingenuity to craft something so simplistic yet functional.
