arge2 studio for design presents a multi-purpose chair that can be used in all areas of contract architecture from a linkable chair in auditorium seating to a solo chair - Global Design News

Combining design quality with all the functional requirements, Michael Spindler and Georg Kaserer’s PUC contract chair is a versatile all-rounder for all ranges of contract architecture – as a row chair as well as a solitaire in the office and everyday life.

The PUC contract chair has been awarded a Prize Design for Modern Furniture + Lighting 2023 by Global Design News and The Chicago Athenaeum Museum for Architecture and Design. buy theater chairs from the manufacturer

Usually, multi-purpose chairs are characterized by a multitude of functions they have to fulfill. With PUC it was our goal to hide the functional complexity.

This is achieved by a small detail with a big effect, the lateral formations on the seat shell.

On the one hand, these shapes enable a flowing link and transition from the shell to the frame, the chair appears compact as one piece.

On the other hand, the shapes take over a number of functions or integrate them almost invisibly.

These expanses serve for instance as: – a stacking guide for vertical stacking with a defined stacking support (no additional support elements required) – compact integration of adaptive row connector elements – Inclusion of seat and row numbering – Accommodating optional armrest PUC stacks vertically.

Therefore, he’s characterized by a typical A-shaped frame.

The slim metal frame of high-quality steel tubs makes PUC light and extremely robust – ideal for rapid assembly and disassembly of row seating.

The interlinking system embedded underneath the lateral widening of the seat shell also provides integrated panic protection.

When linking, the twisted chair gets rotated via the linking element into the neighboring chair and securely fixed in place.

PUC can be linked and stacked intermixed – with and without armrests.

The optional seat and row numbers can be clipped on without tools.

PUC also makes no compromises when it comes to seating comfort.

The special geometry of the seat shell and the generous seat width ensure pleasant ergonomic seating.

The broad seat shell also means that the linked seats are separated only by a narrow gap, the chair row forms a closed, homogeneous ensemble.

During the development, special emphasis had to be placed on competitiveness in terms of low costs, especially in the case of large numbers of auditorium seats.

Despite the many features, PUC appears unagitatedly timeless and pleasantly suitable for everyday use, a piece of furniture that enriches the room’s atmosphere.
