E + M design was started in 2006 by Javi Moreno and J.A. Esteban. The pair, whose profiles relate a great sense of humor, are Spanish designers who specialize in minimalist furniture. The [Nube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apartment-nube) Chair is their latest creation. It’s minimal to the extreme, making one wonder if it could support a person sitting in it.

The Nube chair is similar to the duo’s previous chair, the [Arco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arco), which is also featured in the gallery. Both designs feature minimal structure with an openly designed seat.
