Designers Johannes Foersom and Peter Hiort Lorenzen have put innovation at the heart of their design process, using durable and renewable materials to create timeless pieces of furniture. The Mat Chair’s striking shell combines hemp, eelgrass and a biodegradable polymer binder to create something entirely new.
Mounted on a powder-coated steel base, the chair’s minimalist design allows its unique characteristics to shine through. At the end of the chair’s life, it can be returned to Normann Copenhagen for recycling, further minimising the design’s impact on the environment.
As a result of many years within the design industry, Peter Hiort-Lorenzen and Johannes Foersom are two of Denmark’s most recognised and established furniture designers.
Together they are Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen, and with a shared love for innovation, craftsmanship and functionality, they have received numerous national and international design awards.
