Introducing the 'A STOOL FOR GUITARISTS,' this unique design is tailored specifically for guitarists…”
Fritz Hansen, adored by furniture enthusiasts worldwide, boasts a legacy that spans over 150 years. For the Thai market, the brand’s timeless pieces are imported and distributed by NORSE Republics, the leading supplier of iconic Danish furniture in Thailand. In this latest venture, Fritz Hansen and fragment design have teamed up to reimagine the Ant Chair, a three-legged icon first crafted in 1952 by Arne Jacobsen, the father of Scandinavian design.
In this new collaboration, Hiroshi Fujiwara has masterfully blended the worlds of streetwear and music with the classic aesthetic of the Ant Chair. The result is a remarkable new model, "A STOOL FOR GUITARISTS," which embodies minimalist beauty through its sleek piano black finish. The chair exudes an understated elegance, perfectly complemented by the distinctive lightning bolt logo of fragment design, turning this piece into a striking blend of form and function, ideal for both guitarists and design aficionados alike.
What makes the "A STOOL FOR GUITARISTS" even more compelling is its exclusivity. NORSE Republics has announced that only 80 units of this special model will be available in Thailand, making it a rare find for collectors and design lovers. These limited-edition chairs will be sold exclusively at the House of Fritz Hansen Bangkok, a haven for premium furniture located in the heart of the city.
This launch not only elevates the chair to a new artistic status but also demonstrates a seamless integration of design and music. The Fritz Hansen x fragment design: A STOOL FOR GUITARISTS is set to become a prized piece in the collections of those who appreciate meaningful design with an air of rarity.
