The Profile Chair is the design world's latest iteration of the classic folding chair. This time coming from the masterminds behind Knauf & Brown, a studio based in Vancouver, British Columbia, the Profile Chair is as simple as the original chair, but much more stylish. Featuring natural wood and yellow detailing, it has a timelessly sleek aesthetic that will complement many living and outdoor spaces.
The sleekness of the Profile Chair is also due in large part to its slim silhouette. What is especially impressive about its design is how it folds up. As though nothing more than a short stick, here is no unnecessary protrusions that take up more space than people would like. But the designers note, "Although the chair can collapse to a thin profile, its native state is open."
