The Hybrid chair may be used as a dining chair, a stool, an ottoman or lined up together - a bench. It consists of 2 components, a base and a back, plus some supplied stainless steel hardware items. With the back in place, you’ve got yourself a dining chair. Removing it produces a stool or an ottoman. Multiple ottomans can be linked together to form a bench of any desired length.
The design of the piece was arrived at by experimenting with the simplest of forms, the bent “U” shape base was inspired by a marine shackle proving to be simple yet incredibly strong and stable. Like the base of the chair, the back is simple and minimal in form. The geometry of the 2 components is almost childlike and quite playful in its simplicity, whilst displaying a humorous personality.

多功能座椅闪亮登场！
这个混合式座椅能被用来作为餐椅，凳子，躺椅或者排在一起 -- 成了长凳！它由两个部分组成，一个基座和一个靠背，再加上一些所提供的不锈钢五金配件。把椅背放在原处，你就有了一把餐椅。把椅背移位，就成了一张凳子或者躺椅。多张躺椅可以连在一起，组成一个你所需要长度的长凳。
这个多功能座椅的设计是根据尝试最简单的样式之理念而促成的。弯曲的 " U "形基座是受到航海锚链的启发，这种锚链虽然简单，却令人难以置信的坚固和稳定。椅背也像椅子的基座一样，既简单又小巧。两个组件的几何形状充满童趣，简洁中透出诙谐，显示出主人的幽默性格。
