Kristian Gullichsen Chair with Johanna Gullichsen Upholstery

A distinctive chair designed by Finnish architect and designer Kristian Gullichsen. The chair has a strong architectural presence, with a white painted frame, rounded edges and an open back structure that gives the piece a clear and graphic look.

The construction is simple but very characterful. The thick side panels form both the legs and the back support, creating a solid silhouette from every angle. The newly upholstered seat brings a fresh contrast to the worn white frame, with a yellow patterned fabric that softens the overall look while keeping the chair playful and easy to place.

This is not a polished, restored piece. The frame has plenty of visible wear, marks, scratches and patina from use. For us, that is also part of the appeal here. The chair has a very honest used character, while still being sturdy and ready for everyday use. The seat has been newly upholstered, so the part that takes the most wear in daily use feels fresh and clean.
