Concept
Introducing the REMO Collection, a remarkable ensemble of chairs that represents a pivotal point in design history and craftsmanship. Designed by Konstantin Grcic, the REMO chairs embody a perfect fusion of innovation and artistic expression.
The REMO Plastic Chair, the trailblazer of the collection, boasts a vibrant polypropylene shell available in an array of 12 colors, from classic black and white to striking avion blue and coral red. Its metal frame ensures adaptability from indoor to outdoor settings, and the stackable feature adds practicality to its charm.
Following the Plastic Chair's success, Plank introduced the REMO Wood Chair, an elegant blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern manufacturing techniques. The molded wood seat comes in natural ash, white ash, walnut, grey, or black stained finishes, offering warmth and versatility. Opt for the optional upholstered cushion in fabric or leather to elevate comfort. Available in single chair or stackable variants, the REMO Wood Chair complements any space with sophistication.
Expanding the collection further, the REMO Wood Chair with a metal frame showcases a harmonious union of shaped wood shell and powder-coated metal frame, delivering both style and durability. The option to add an upholstered cushion provides an elevated experience.
In 2022, the REMO collection welcomed a new addition- the upholstered version. The fully upholstered shell, with impeccable workmanship, delivers unmatched comfort and flexibility with its dynamic backrest. The black hinge and powder-coated metal tube frame perfectly complement the vibrant upholstery options, making it an ideal choice for various living areas, offices, hotels, bars, and restaurants.
As Konstantin Grcic profoundly stated, "If we wanted to tell the history of design through a single type of furniture, we could do so using the chair." The REMO Collection perfectly embodies this sentiment, encapsulating an entire culture, reflecting the past and present way of life, and embracing technological advancements.
