Crocodile Chair
The Crocodile Chair and Stool are the first products to come out of PH + , a platform within Phantom Hands for experimental collaborations with designers and artists.
Felix Pfäffli, a Swiss Graphic Designer known for his bold forms, curvilinear lines, bolts of colours and unusual geometries, interprets the classic Chandigarh Easy Armchair attributed to Pierre Jeanneret 'as a graphic designer would'.
A zig-zag pattern runs through the side of the back, armrests and legs of the chair creating distinctive edges that conjure images of bunting flags, a staircase or….. crocodile teeth. Closer inspection will reveal that there are no sharp edges, just gently-rounded curves. The elements that form the zig-zag pattern are joined together in a manner that completely reveals the details of the joinery, rather than hiding it.
The chair comes in a selection of two wood finishes and four fabric colour pairings for each of the wood finishes, all carefully composed by Felix. The upholstery colours are custom-developed by our fabric collaborator Zanav, through the traditional process of vat dyeing handspun yarn
