Typo office chair by AMDL Circle for Mara

Typo office chair by AMDL Circle for Mara

Dezeen Showroom: Italian studio AMDL Circle has created the Typo office chair for furniture brand Mara, which is characterised by its playfully bent form.

Typo is an office chair with a light timber base and backrest that are both gently curved in shape.

Contrasting with the wood, the chair features a coloured metal structure with a distinctly lively silhouette.

The brand explained how it worked with AMDL Circle to form the design, which was created through "unconventional fine-tuning".

It is characterised by a twisting metal structure

"By bending a square-section steel tube along the diagonal, the material deforms, curling and sharply creasing," said Mara. "This detail generates the intentional and sought-after 'error' that is the soul of the project."

"Typo, as a typing error, is almost an accidental mistake," continued the brand, explaining the product's playful name.

The seats come in a range of natural wood finishes as well as a multicoloured edition designed by Alpi woods to celebrate Milan design week 2024.
