NOAH and GUBI work in collaboration on a new collection that is led by a special edition of the MR01 chair. The rest of the collection is made up of apparel and accessories. The chair is an Outdoor Lounge structure and is made from Iroko wood for an adjustable and versatile look. It is set to launch online officially on June 13th followed by a beach towel, hat, swim shorts, a sweater, and a tote bag.
Co-founder Estelle Bailey-Babenzien explains that “The design of the MR01 is so classic. I wanted to add a bold, artistic expression and practical element to the design as an alternative to something that is already perfect, thus by selecting weatherproof nautical rope in four new colours, woven through the frame, the chair works equally well outside as it does in.”
