canal chair

Mainly docked around a table in the manner of a moored boat, Luca Nichetto's Canal chair is inspired by a historical type of ship that dominated the Mediterranean waterways for centuries. From Greece to the republic of Venice, galleys sailed away with powerful grace and precious cargoes, exchanging luxurious merchandise and chasing dreams of glory.

Marcel Wanders grew up in Boxtel, the Netherlands and graduated cum laude from the School of the Arts Arnhem in 1988. His fame started with the iconic Knotted Chair in 1996. He is now designing for the biggest European contemporary design manufacturers including Moooi of which he is also art director and co-owner. He works on architectural, interior design and consumer home appliances. His designs have been selected for the most important design collections and exhibitions around the world.

The Canal chair stands proud, with its back resembling the bow of a boat, while displaying timeless compositions of subtle tone-on-tone hues, or bolder color-play combinations. With its wide assortment of diverse bases, including a swivel option, and multiple upholstered seats to choose from, the chair's contemporary design is visually adaptable to suit all kinds of interiors.
