Metallic Tubular Minimal Chairs

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Tone Chair by Marko Filipic has a Bright Color Palette

— July 9, 2023 — Art & Design
Marko Filipic designs the Tone Chair with a minimal aesthetic and bright tonal palette. The furniture is defined by bent metallic tubes. It is comprised of four tubes in total along with two pieces of sheet metal as the surface and back rest. The tubes are used to create the legs of the chairs and be the supporting foundation.

It all comes together in a harmonious language with some of the seams welded and left exposed to truly capture the metallic beauty of the chair's nature. The bright yellow adds a stark look to the simple design and additionally, it also comes in a bare silver option to really allow the metal to speak for itself.
