Modern Commercial Seating

Post-modernist, that’s one of the many, many words used to describe the work of architect Frank Gehry, who lives and works in California. The master behind the design of internationally known buildings like the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, he has received numerous awards for his work, earning him a place in an elite group of his peers – they are called ‘starchitects’ for good reason.

Aside from buildings, Gehry also designs furniture. The Frank Gehry Furniture Collection is a quintessential example of his work in this field. And modern looking the pieces in it are indeed, with their minimalist look that somehow still manages to convey a sense of play with their wide curves. They are chunky, but not awkward. The chairs and tables in this collection aren’t stiff and boring and don’t come across as trying too hard to make an impression. They just do.

A sofa, easy chair, cube stools, bench, and coffee table make up this series. They are all made from one piece roto molded polymer and finished in silver resin. They were all designed to blend in well in either residential or commercial settings: as commercial bar chairs and tables. They can be placed separately at some distance from each other in your restaurant or café. But for greater impact, positioning them all close to each other is best. They are eye-catching individually but collectively they are breathtaking.

These babies are not high-maintenance furniture that you have to coddle. They are able to withstand the strains and stresses that come with commercial use. Plus, they are safe for outdoor use, so they would be a good choice if your restaurant or bar has an al fresco section.
