Wiener GTV Design C 1879 Folding low lounge chair

C 1879 represents a significant step in the evolution of Gebrüder Thonet Vienna, extending the brand's language to outdoor environments.‎ Reinterpreting the historic Kaminsesselthe design is transformed into a folding lounge chair designed for flexible and transitional spaces, taking the GTV aesthetic beyond the boundaries of interior design.‎ The original codes are translated into a construction suitable for outdoor environments: powder-coated stainless steel is combined with solid iroko wood, chosen for its strength and stability over time.‎ The folding mechanism increases its adaptability, making it ideal for dynamic contexts.‎ A distinctive element of the design is the introduction of hand-woven waxed cotton, proposed as an alternative to the traditional Vienna straw.‎ More compact and textured, it is designed for semi-outdoor use, offering durability and a strong sensory quality.‎ With C 1879, GTV expands its collection dedicated to the hybrid environments of contemporary living - terraces, verandas and border spaces - where interior and exterior dialogue more and more freely.‎ The lounge chair is available in a numbered edition, underlining the exclusive and collectable character of the design.‎ Further info from manufacturer on C 1879 Wiener GTV Design
