Nube armchair, design by Jesús Gasca & Jon Gasca / Stua

The design of the Nube armchair juxtaposes the clean lines and right angles of contemporary architecture with the curves of the human body. The outside of Nube is all straight lines and flat parallel planes, whilst within it is cosy and curved, like a nest.

Instead of a solid block, the design of Nube allows us to see all of the structure at once and the chair´s interior form. So the soft curve whare one sits is immediately visible from all angles. The comfort level of the chair is visible to the sitter.

The volumen is delineated by the sober, straight lines of the outside, enriched by the grace of the inner curves. This effect is enhanced by the use of two colours in the upholstery of the armchair, one colour for the flat surfaces and the other colour for the curves.

The frame of the chair is light, minimal and continues the line of the outer form, almost imperceptibly. The frame is of solid chromed steel.

Looked at from above, Nube is completely square in form and combinations of shapes. Straight lines and angles can be created by placing multiple chairs beside eachother.

Nube is suitable for both domestic and contract use, and is only available in an upholstered form.
