LEYA BARSTOOL HIGH

LEYA BARSTOOL HIGH

Designed by Hoffmann Kahleyss Design

The Design-Duo `HoffmannKahleyssDesign´ has designed a dualistic piece of furniture, as harmonious as yin and yang.

Leya reconciles contradictions in a wonderful way. With its tautly upholstered shell, the barstool designed by Birgit Hoffmann and Christoph Kahleyss makes a clear and linear impression from the outside, but you’ll feel the outstanding comfort the moment you sit down.

The external padding reveals a soft cushion on the inside for an almost sensory experience. This 111cm of pure design is available in a range of premium quality coverings and either on a delicately-poised wire frame or on a height-adjustable swivel column base; an elegant high back provides an extra level of comfort.

DESIGNERS

BIRGIT HOFFMANN & CHRISTOPH KAHLEYSS

Hoffmann Kahleyss Design

Always functional, never cold: designs by Birgit Hoffmann (*1968) and Christoph Kahleyss (*1963) are recognisable by their elegant, yet soft and organic form. In their joint Hamburg bureau, the duo produce design after design with an expressive, individual look and a sensuous feel.

Birgit, who trained as a ceramicist before taking her degree in design, has been a part of FREIFRAU from the very beginning and is still its senior art director.

Christoph, meanwhile, is a trained carpenter and industrial designer with the technical know-how and precision to make every design a reality.

Both he and Birgit were greatly inspired by their long partnership with Peter Maly. Designed for Freifrau Manufaktur: Amelie, Grace, Leya, Leyasol, Marla
