London designer Benjamin Hubert has created a chair that looks like it’s wrapped up in a cloak for Italian brand Moroso.
Named Talma after a type of cloak, this chair by Benjamin Hubert for Moroso, has a fabric cover wrapped snuggly around its frame.
The chair is composed of a softly padded textile folded around a lightweight CNC-shaped steel frame with integrated support straps.
The stretchy fabric is custom made by Innofa and is secured in place with a series of zips and two fastenings at the front.
Talma was presented by Moroso at the Salone Internazionale Mobile in Milan last month, where the brand also launched a family of chairs influenced by the shape of a hood.
Other chairs we’ve recently featured by Moroso include a chair with a backrest wrapped in rush and a chair made from a single loop of material.
Benjamin Hubert also unveiled an armchair that weighs just three kilograms in Milan.
We interviewed the designer at our Dezeen Live event during 100% Design at the end of last year, where he talked about the importance of branding for designers.Watch the interview »
