Colorful Flat-Packed Sustainable Chairs

One to One Unveils the OTO Chair with Vibrant Colorways

— May 10, 2023 — Art & Design
Alessandro Stabile and Marinelli Venezia design the new OTO chair that stems from a sustainable angle without disrupting its ergonomic design language. The visual aesthetic is bright and colorful, adding a playful feel to the design language. The duo designed the OTO chair for the Italian furniture imprint One to One with the intention of it being a “manifesto for circular design.”

The brand deeply values sustainability and the chair is made from recycled plastic materials to reach a goal of full sustainability. The two states, “From the beginning, we realized that using recycled materials was not enough. We had to think about something that would systematize the entire sustainable supply chain, from production to logistics, distribution, and assembly, to stimulate the public with a product capable of activating a new awareness."
