Minimalist Colorful Seating Collections

Gensler's Released the Colorful Mixu Collection for Arper

— May 26, 2021 — Art & Design
This colorful seating collection is the epitome of playful minimalism. Brought to life by architecture and design consultants Gensler for furniture brand Arper, the Mixu range are available to consumers in multiple color and material options.

The colorful seating collection is made up of stools and chairs that are versatile in their elegance. Each piece is made of three parts—a base, a seat, and a backrest. Staying true to the customization craze, users can select the colors and finishes for each individual piece. About this design versatility, Arper shares that "[the] three-part system can be personalized with myriad color and texture combinations to create a silhouette whose softly rounded geometric curves, and minimal gesture creates a perfect canvas for material expression."
