Although I’m pretty sure that the Fly Chair is made for indoor use, I think the design would look perfect on an outdoor patio or by the pool. There’s just something lounge-like and rustic despite its obvious modern take.
Designed by Patrick Norguet for the Swedish manufacturer OFFECCT, the Fly Chair took four years to complete. The reason for that time involved getting the perfect textile for the design as well as one that was the most eco-friendly.
Similar to the shape of a Japanese samurai helmet, the Fly Chair definitely evokes a sense of the Far East.
