Revolt Chair by Friso Kramer

The Revolt char was designed in 1953 by Friso Kramer for the Dutch company Ahrend Group.

This was in the fifty’s a revolutionary design, as the chair was produced with Bakelite combined with kraft-paper for the seating and back..
The frame was made of metal sheets instead of tubes. The metal sheets was then molded into shape.

This make the whole construction very light and elegant and also cheap to produce.

This chair has a timeless design and is still in production today.

In the 1990′s Friso Kramer created a new version of the chair with some more padding in seat and back, this making it more trendy, because now you can put on different colors to match your interior.
