Description
The Thinking Man's Chair is one of Jasper Morrison's most well-known pieces. Originally created for a fair in Japan in 1986, the chair has been produced by Cappellini ever since. The frame is made of tubular metal, and the seat and backrest are made of flat profile metal. The armrests are equipped with small trays, making them highly practical. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, this armchair illustrates the designer's early approaches to work and has become an undisputed classic. Starting with simple and subtle lines, the two curves on the back of the Thinking Man's Chair that reach out to the curved armrests give the impression of increased length, and create a highly graphic and particularly sleek look. Thinking Man's Chair is an armchair to displayed like a sculpture, whether in your garden or living room.When seen from the side, you can't help but contemplate the subtle work of the designer, who has created a piece of perfect beauty. The inscriptions on this version further accentuate the chair's curved shapes.

Jasper MORRISON
Born in London in 1959, Jasper Morrison studied at the Royal College of Art in London and continued his studies at the Berlin School of Fine Arts. In 1986, Jasper Morrison set up his own design studio in London. He attracted attention with the clear concepts of his installations "Reuters News Center" at documenta 8 in Kassel and "Some new items for the home" at the DAAD gallery in Berlin, which presented objects with highly refined lines in reaction to the formal exuberance of postmodernism. He became the pioneer of the "New Simplicity": a concept translated into a design imbued with simplicity and seriousness. His furniture creations include lamps, interior accessories and textiles, as well as a tramway for the city of Hanover and a bus stop for the Vitra site. Jasper Morrison adopts a rationalist approach to manufacturing processes and advocates an aesthetic devoid of superfluous details. This 'super normal' design has won over many manufacturers (Canon, Sony) and design brands such as Alessi, Flos (the Glo-Ball lamp), Cappellini (the surprising Thinking Man's Chair), SCP and Vitra, which gives a prominent place to its pieces in the Vitra Home range, including the Cork stools in natural cork.
