The Green Hideaway chair concept is designed by Stockholm-bassed design studio Front/ with the collaborative help of European chain HORNBACH and creative agency HeimatTBWA\. The chair is a DIY living plant furniture piece and it invites those to interact with nature.
The chair is the newest addition to the HORNBACK WERKSTÜCK series, which is a series that focuses on democratizing premium design through collaborations with progressive artists and designers to create new projects. This chair specifically was inspired by the classic Swedish seat known as the pinnstol. After building the natural wooden frame as the structure, they are able to add their selection of trailing vines that ultimately create the green sanctuary seating of the chair.
