The Tube Chair by KiBiSi, a Danish design firm, is a stackable seat manufactured out of wood and aluminum. HAY produced the Tube Chair for KiBiSi and at first glance you would be forgiven in thinking it is made out of recycled cardboard paper towel rolls.
KiBiSi designed the Tube Chair to be a part of the project 8 HOUSE by BIG in Copenhagen. The sturdy and simplistic design is appealing and pleasing to the eye.
