Say hi to Twill Chair, our new all-timber stacking chair designed by Gibson Karlo. With its extruded profiles and neatly trimmed ends, Twill Chair draws on the playful nostalgia of a fresh pack of plasticine.

"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.
