Padded Upright Vibrant Chairs

Francesco Favaretto Designs the Fender Chairs for True Design

— November 7, 2022 — Art & Design
Italian designer Francesco Favaretto designs the new set of Fender chairs for True Design. It features three new chairs in total, all of which have an upright design. It includes newly released seating, a small armchair, and a high-back armchair. It continues to grow the Fender series and features padded armrests in order to encourage seamless comfort for those to sit, lean, and even lay across the chair.

The chair itself has a steel frame that is wrapped in a thick polyurethane foam material for comfort and support. Speaking about the design, True Design states that "sitting on the armrest is no longer a childish or impertinent gesture since it is made specifically to accommodate and sustain."
