Carl Hansen & Son introduces Plico Chair by Preben Fabricius and Jorgen Kastholm; a foldable lounge chair whose light expression is an unique example of a simple and honest design that neither compromises on comfort nor aesthetics. The Danish designer duo Fabricius Kastholm were masters at creating honest design that beautifully highlights what other designers often seek to hide. With its visible joints, beautiful brass fittings and accomplished craftsmanship, the Plico Chair is a great example of this. The chair was first presented in 1964 when it won the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild Furniture Prize for its outstanding craftsmanship and expression. The idea behind the design was to create a chair that takes up as little space as possible when not in use while not compromising on comfort. Plico means 'to fold' in Latin and, despite its light exterior, the chair offers supreme comfort by virtue of its soft upholstery and features an adjustable backrest that can be completely folded. This ensures a degree of versatility rarely found in a lounge chair.
