Tomeo
During the 60s, visionary designers developed the first plastic furniture. The designers’ talent coupled with the versatility of the substance led to its indispensability. Both designers and consumers became addicted to it. Today, we know its environmental dangers. Still, restaurant terraces remain filled with plastic chairs. This is because the market offers little alternative. The design world remains sparsely populated with manufacturers of steel furniture, even sometimes republishing designs from the late 19th century… Here comes the birth of Tomeo: a modern, light & stackable steel chair.
Tomeo Outdoor Metallic Chair by Hugo Charlet-berguerand was highlighted as an innovative illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Tomeo Outdoor Metallic Chair received the Silver A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2020. The A' Furniture Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design recognition program which honors outstanding design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
