The latest model by Hoffmann Kahleyss Design for Freifrau Manufaktur is more than just a chair: it‘s a statement.
'When you sit down on the Freifrau Marie chair, you’ve arrived in the here and now. The casually crumpled upholstery of its seating shell is nothing short of an invitation to sit down, lean back, and switch off – or to communicate, to exchange ideas, to be social. Either way, the design is open, receptive, like a pair of arms stretched out to give someone familiar a welcoming hug.'
In design terms, the chair is defined by the relaxed upholstery style of its shell, nestling in a delicate steel-tube frame whose rear bar pinches the back of the cushion along the middle, underscoring Marie’s laid-back appearance. As is the case with Freifrau pieces, there is a variety of fabric and leather coverings available to respond to all tastes, from the classic to the extravagant, and the covering for the shell is zipped on and then screwed to the frame as part of the seat. By the same token, it can be unscrewed and changed – and when it reaches the end of its service life, the chair can easily be separated back out into its individual parts.
