# Boldly Colorful Chair Designs Willett Debuts Two New Colorways for His Popo Chair By Kalin Ned | Published 2024-12-29 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popo-chair References: [willettspace](https://willettspace.com/catalogue/popo-chair)  At [Design Miami](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-flap-chair) this year, LA-based designer [Willett](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cm-g1-house) introduced two new color variations of his Popo Chair – Cream and Willett Red. These additions to his collection were developed in collaboration with Ojas founder Devon Turnbull and were showcased in the USM Talk [Space](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cognac-boutique) alongside the existing Ebony Popo model. The Popo Chair is Willett's debut design in the dining chair category. The silhouette draws inspiration from Italian 1960s injection-molded plastic chairs. Constructed from stacked MDF, the chair’s rectilinear framework is softened with rounded edges and finished with a high-gloss lacquer for a sleek, modern look. The new colorways add versatility to the Popo Chair, allowing greater choices for consumers who wish to incorporate the modern furniture silhouette in their living space.
