Lite – an Attractive Stackable Chair from OFFECCT

OFFECCT presents Lite, a new stackable chair / armchair designed by Broberg & Ridderstråle Design & Architecture. Lite is the result of a design brief from OFFECCT, where the assignment was to develop a stackable chair that combined pleasing aesthetics with rational function and design.

”The challenge we gave Broberg & Ridderstråle was to create a chair that whilst playing with the idea of how a stackable chair usually looks like, also meets the demanding requirements from public interiors” says Anders Englund, Design Manager, OFFECCT.

The result was Lite, a stackable chair / armchair characterized by a thin profile and a wide arched back. Lite comes with a very competitive price, combining an attractive design with the stringent requirements of a stackable chair - it is easy to transport and to stack, as well as space-efficient and durable.

”Stackable chairs are often narrow and characterized by a slightly anxious expression. We wanted to create a chair with an inviting wide back that nevertheless could be placed close together” says Mats Broberg from the designer duo Broberg & Ridderstråle.

”The comfort has also been an important ingredient in the development process” continues Broberg.

Lite can be fitted with accessories such as an arm rest and a foldable writing tablet. It is possible to connect multiple chairs with a linking device. Lite can also be equip- ped with a removable upholstery for the back and seat, where the removability makes it possible to use the chair also when the upholstery is being cleaned.
