Twill Raises the Bar
Say hello to the new Twill Bar Chair, by Gibson Karlo. Subtle in aesthetic yet generous in practicality, Twill is a modern yet classic addition to any counter.
"We love how the double profile looks and functions. It was inspired by plasticine strips and the repetition seen in Twill weaves. It creates a sense of ornament whilst creating strength in the legs and comfort in the backrest." — Sarah Gibson & Nicholas Karlovasitis, designers.
Featuring a sweeping backrest that also acts as armrests, Twill Bar Chair is designed to neatly tuck under your bench top. A fixed upholstered seat pad option is also available.
