Cafestuhl is a chair signed by Nigel Coates in 2016 for the brand Gebrüder Thonet Vienna. It is a bent beech-wood chair, available also with an upholstered seat.Nigel Coates designed Cafestuhl as an original interpretation of the Thonet tradition with a contemporary twist. This is an extremely comfortable and ergonomic chair which stands out for its sculpted anthropomorphic backrest that evokes the triangular shape of human shoulder blades. This elegant piece conceived for homes with a strong designer look but also suitable also for contract spaces, features a serpentine pattern under the seat of the chair, an element which appears on all pieces designed by Coates for GTV.
