Description
Cladding the front in a prime textile or leather also reveals the subtly textured matte-plastic shell of Gubi’s signature molded chair made from 100% recyclable polypropylene. Beetle’s durable outer shell is a continuous, curved form, reminiscent of the contours of the insect that inspired it and engineered to flex slightly with the sitter for extended comfort. With almost limitless upholstery options for customizing the chair, it offers both wide versatility and an affordability that suits residential and hospitality settings alike.

Brand
Gubi
Design is an unceasing continuum, believes this Danish house, now owned by a second generation. Owner and creative director Jacob Gubi Olsen inherited the helm from his parents Gubi and Lisbeth Larson, who founded the business to showcase their postmodern furniture. Under Jacob’s watch, Gubi added a global focus to its roots in Copenhagen, with a cosmopolitan array of furniture, lighting and interior objects.
Alongside 20th Century icons such as Robert Dudley Best and Greta Magnusson-Grossman, the design house has championed a new wave of design studios including GamFratesi, Space Copenhagen and OeO Studio. “I started out with two very strong designs, Bestlite—a Bauhaus collection designed in 1930—and Gubi Chair, designed in 2003. I felt they had something in common,” says Jacobs. “Iconic appearance, functional design, high quality, aesthetic design language and adaptable for many different kinds of interiors. I took these values as a guideline for any new designs added to the collection ever since.”
