Designed in close collaboration with Marcel Gascoin’s family, the F-Chair Outdoor Lounge Chair references the designer’s original drawings, ideas, and design values. Placing high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship at the heart of the design, the F-Chair features a durable teak wood frame, chosen for its natural hard-wearing properties, structural integrity, and visual appeal.
The chair’s distinct woven seat and backrest are crafted from synthetic, weather-resistant fibre, replicating the charming appearance of natural woven furniture, while withstanding the outdoor elements. Timeless, characterful, and comfortable the F-Chair invites you to sit back and enjoy long summer evenings in your outdoor living space.
French designer Marcel Gascoin (1907-1986) was one of the leading furniture designers of the post-war era. He played a vital role in the reconstruction of France after World War II, where his streamlined wooden furniture, focussing on clean aesthetics and functionality, became the staple for 1950s French households.
Gascoin worked as an interior architect and designer with the French Ministry of Reconstruction and Urbanism to design and build homes and the furniture to fill them during the post-war housing crisis in France.
Forward-thinking for his time and with a strong social conscience, Gascoin’s democratic design drew lines between art and industry, converging clean aesthetics with rational manufacturing processes.
Today Gascoin’s work, unrecognized for a long time, has been progressively re-discovered by collectors, adoring his simple and striking furniture creations.
