Slide Chair Prototype by Studio Yann Gandon, Copenhagen, made from aluminium with 76% recycled content, finished in yellow, 85 cm high, 80 cm deep, 45 cm wide, one item in excellent condition, designed in a minimalist Design style and dating to 2025.
Description from the seller
The Slide Chair repurposes offcuts from aluminum curtain rails, transforming their industrial profile into a precise and functional seating element. By bending and reshaping the extruded form, the design highlights the rail’s unique geometry—merging structure and comfort in a minimal silhouette.
Designed in Copenhagen and made from aluminum containing 76% recycled content.
The prototype was presented in a fair in Sweden and was featured in different magazines like Elle Decoration Japan.
As a prototype, the piece shows some light surface marks and produces a small creaking noise from the assembly, though it remains fully stable and structurally strong.
This makes it a special opportunity to own a singular, early-stage piece that won’t exist in the same form again.
