Snug Chair

A comfortable indoor leisure chair, Snug was inspired by the shape and aesthetic of the beanbag. Snug is handcrafted from eco-friendly rattan. The design fuses traditional weaving methods and contemporary furniture design.

The idea behind the Snug Chair was to design an ‘organically’ shaped seat with a hollow, singular form. Designed as a leisure chair for the home, Snug provides a comfortable seating solution for relaxation in any setting.

Each Snug chair is meticulously handmade by weaving artisans using skills passed down through many generations. Round-core rattan is skilfully woven over a recyclable steel frame, creating a hollow ‘organic’ form and a unique sculptural aesthetic. Snug is eco-friendly, using self-sustaining natural materials that are sourced from sustainable plantations. Snug uses a small quantity of steel tubing, which can be easily recycled.

Traditional handcrafting methods make the production of Snug easy and environmentally sensitive. It does not rely on industrial mass-production processes. The chair uses few industrial materials. The majority of the production involves handwork with minimal machinery required. Snug celebrates the importance of craft-based skills and traditional artisans in modern furniture design.
