This chair was intended for use in the recently renovated De La Warr Pavilion at Bexhill-On-Sea, so it was only fitting that its design reflected the stunning modernist structure in which it was to be housed. The cast aluminium used in the construction of the chair was inspired by the balustrade and detailing of the original building. The distinctive skid leg of this chair was created in response to the observation that many chairs, particularly dining chairs, are first viewed from the rear. The chair is available in a powder-coated finish with the addition of a wool or leather upholstered seat. Included in the permanent collection of the V&A Museum, London
