A robust but elegant chair from Karim Rashid

The High Roller – this is how the designer Karim Rashid has named his new creation from the chairs department. It is not by any means the classic chair that you were used with. Certainly, the shape is not traditional.

The lines are very soft and gentle and the design follows the human body’s silhouette. This is exactly why this chair is very comfortable despite the fact that it’s made out of wood. Although it might look heavy, inefficient and difficult to transport, I think the visual impact that it has on you makes all that worth it.I especially like the simplicity of this design and the way that the two colors perfectly complement each other. The small details like this one are what makes the difference between elegance and kitsch. In this case, simplicity is more than enough.
