Ghidini1961 Coast Chair
COAST CHAIR
COAST CHAIR
Designed by Josh & Nick
Inspired by the Northern California coastline, the Coast Chair’s design draws its influence from a landscape of wandering, golden hills and the meandering roads that intersect them.
Blending refined architectural elements with fluid gestures, the chair’s form brings surprising design moments to a functional, everyday object. The controlled, geometric legs provide a strong foundation for the more expressive upper section.
The backrest appears to float using discreet joinery, and is framed by a brass arc, which acts as both a touch-point to move the chair and a resting place for a coat or bag.
The Coast Chair welcomes you to sit back and stay awhile. A mix of rigorous and soft lines, the thinness of the legs and the compactness of the seat come together in a new way. The chair, a complex object, finds a new and intriguing declination.

TIVANO FABRIC
Tivano is a semi-aniline leather with a hand-buffed finishing and a stone-washed effect. Produced with cattle of european origin, it has a thickness of 1.2-1.4 mm. The size of each skin is about 5 sqm. Due to the technical characteristics of the finish it is not possible to grant high surface resistance to rubbing or light.
Furthermore, the particular processing does not guarantee uniformity of colour between different batches.

Yarns of different types and thicknesses create a textural weave and confer a slight matelassé effect to the surface.
Soft and consistent to the hand, hardwearing and ideal for heavy duty seating.

With a back cloth that gives extra stability, clay is perfect for upholstering furniture.

Safire’s coarse surface structure gives a subtle handwoven appearance that is both unique and dynamic, adding a special and unique dimension to this upholstery fabric.
The thick boucle and chenille yarns contribute to its wooly handle and soft appeal but also gives a vibrant two-tone effect.
TWILLTWENTY FABRIC
A classic twill. A particularly thick thread/yarn highlights the “z” diagonal motif which makes the fabric more dynamic. The shiny and matt threads enhance the effect of the light on the surface.
