Hannes Grebin

Exhibited at DESIGN MIAMI. 2023 Berlin based, Bauhaus educated, multi-disciplinary designer Hannes Grebin has created a group of upholstered seating, titled the Cozy Collection, inspired by the questioning of traditional domestic decor. Applying the principals of Cubism to design, Grebin masterfully deconstructs the traditional shapes and detailing of a “dad’s chair” and the “family room sofa” into simplified geometric shapes and interlocking planes. He describes the pieces as “living sculptures, which puts the traditional views about comfort and taste into question.” The “dad’s chair” is a wing back style that dates back centuries has been re-analyzed, broken down and reassembled into Grebin’s Cozy Chair. It is both fractured and asymmetric but perfectly meeting the demands of ergonomics. Angular and yet cozy, sculptural and yet functional, Grebin has struck a unique balance that makes The Cozy Chair an alluring work of design. This chair is shown and priced with five unique cast bronze legs by designer Markus Haase, turned wood legs with brass caps are also available. All orders are COM. Materials: Silk-Velvet, Beech Wood, Bronze.
