Chairs, Chair Design and Chair Designers
When I saw this chair my first reaction was “another chair clown”.
Out there there are several designers who, in one way or another, change a bit in a chair’s design to make a humouresque object of it. Rasmus Baekkel Fex is certainly one of them. Others are Pablo Reinoso, Helmut Palla, Robert Wilson, Janez Suhadolec, Pawel Grunert and Martino Gamper.

Designed by the inhouse designers of Morelato, an Italian furniture manufacturer based in Salizzole – Verona
Morelato, after having developed a single bed and a double bed, now introduces a new version of the Giò model, inspired by the design style of the sixties of the famous architect Giò Ponti, who has characterized the history of design of the twentieth century.
A handy and refined sofa bed entirely made of cherry wood. Thanks to its compact size the model is suitable also for small spaces. An extremely handy sofa which when necessary can be into a bed characterized by e refined design and great style Dimensioni: L 215 D 93 H 80
I believe it is more of a (day)bed than a sofa bed.

Elizabeth Garouste was born in Paris in 1949. After her interior design studies at the Camondo School in Paris, she created theater sets for Jean-Michel Ribes before turning to design, which clearly informed her sensibility. In the late 1970s she met Mattia Bonetti and by 1980 the two were collaborating on furniture collections. Garouste and Bonetti quickly became some of the most sought after designers. Their innovative style and whimsical designs have been shown in numerous museums including the Victoria & Albert and Centre Georges Pompidou. She had her first solo exhibition upon joining RALPH PUCCI in 2014.
