Indoor/Outdoor Chairs Inspired by Catamaran Trampolines
The Grand Ribaud chair, by Thomas Defour
Catamarans consist of two hulls, and no deck between them. Instead, the two hulls are connected by netting known as a catamaran trampoline.
Trampolines are used for four reasons: They save weight; they cannot take on water; they're strong enough to stand on; and they're comfortable to sit on.
These indoor/outdoor Grand Ribaud chairs, designed by French interior architect Thomas Defour, were inspired by catamaran trampolines.
The netting is made of nylon, and the steel tubing is offered in chromed or powder-coated finishes.
Defour also designed a companion Ottoman.
The Grand Ribaud chair is in production by French design brand 13Desserts.
