Tip Ton RE chair C$513.00

Description

Vitra’s Tip Ton RE is a special edition of Edward Barber's and Jay Osgerby's Tip Ton chair: it is made entirely of recycled plastic. The eco-friendly material derives from post-consumer recycled plastic, namely plastic packaging from household waste. Due to the innovative material, Tip Ton RE is suitable for outdoor use and 100 % recyclable.

The Tip Ton chair catches the eye with its special base structure that allows the chair to be tilted a few degrees forward. According to the research conducted at the ETH Zürich University in Switzerland, a seating pose that slightly reaches forward actives back and stomach muscles and thus helps the body to get more oxygen. Designed by Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, Tip Ton will find its place at the office, kitchen or elsewhere in the house, and it is available in a wide range of different colours.

Barber & Osgerby

Edward Barber (b. 1969) and Jay Osgerby (b. 1969) are British designers and founders of the London-based studio Barber & Osgerby, established in 1996. Barber and Osgerby studied architecture and interior design at London’s Royal College of Art and since that, they have collaborated in the fields of industrial design, furniture design and architecture. Their clean, streamlined designs are often inspired by folding and shaping of sheet material, and a fine example of their innovative style is the Tip Ton chair published by Vitra.
