By Tom Dixon for Cappellini
S-Chair
The S-Chair has a dark varnished metal structure; the iconic original version is upholstered with marsh straw; alternatively, it is available in wicker or with a fixed cover chosen from a selection of leathers or fabrics from the collection. For the marsh straw version, the weaving is done entirely by hand: a meticulous procedure that requires more than 6 hours of craftsmanship. An emblem of contemporary design, the chair can be found in the permanent collections of the world’s greatest museums, from the Triennale in Milan to the MoMA in New York.
S-Chair was designed by Tom Dixon. Dixon's restless and rebellious nature led him to abandon his studies so that he could explore his own creativity and a personal means of expression using recycled materials. In those years, he opened the laboratory “Space”: a think tank, an independent open space where artists and designers could collaborate together and influence each other creatively and design-wise. It was during this fertile period that Tom Dixon began collaborating with Cappellini, for whom he created the iconic S-Chair. In the 1990s, “Space” was transformed into a full-fledged design studio: Dixon became recognized as a top-level designer and his name started spreading rapidly amongst internationally acclaimed brands. Dixon’s works are included in the permanent collections of the most important museums, including the Victoria & Albert Museum, the MoMa in New York and Tokyo, and the Centre Pompidou.
