Designed by Marco Acerbis, this new seat pairs the rigor of curved plywood with maximum flexibility for the contract sector
The hospitality industry demands furniture that seamlessly blends style, durability, and functionality. TÊT by Et al. was created to meet these needs through an essential visual language and a strong formal identity. Designed by Marco Acerbis, the chair features two curved plywood shells that define a rigorous yet welcoming silhouette.
The defining feature of the design is its broad, gently enveloping backrest. This continuous surface shapes the chair’s character, bringing volume and visual balance to the entire piece.
Essential Structure and Tailored Comfort
The wooden shells merge naturally into a light, rational four-legged metal frame. To suit various interior styles, TÊT by Et al. offers flexible configuration options:
- All-wood version: Highlights the purity of lines and the natural beauty of the material.
- Upholstered seat cushion version: Introduces a soft, tactile element while keeping the cushion separate from the backrest to preserve its geometric rigor.
Choosing the right upholstery lets designers tailor the chair’s aesthetic without altering its core shape, ensuring optimal ergonomic comfort.
Smart Functionality for Hospitality Spaces
Beyond its visual appeal, the design effectively addresses practical needs in contract spaces. The chair is easily stackable, a crucial feature for optimizing space management in dynamic environments like hotels, bars, and restaurants.
The orderly stacking capability reduces footprint and simplifies storage and handling. By striking the perfect balance between technical efficiency and refined design, TÊT by Et al. transforms an everyday item into a distinctive presence for any interior.
