Concetto
A prima vista, Chap ha un aspetto familiare: la sua affinità con i piccoli sgabelli a quattro gambe o i tavoli di appoggio è evidente fin da subito. La qualità di design di questo tipo risiede nell'aspetto generico e nell'universalità di impiego, proprio per questo non si limitano mai a una funzione specifica. Chap è particolarmente flessibile e adattabile: nel contesto domestico funge da pratico poggiapiedi, tavolo di appoggio o opzione di seduta, quando ci sono ospiti in più. Inoltre, essendo leggero e impilabile, si può portare a workshop, riunioni e incontri di altro tipo in ufficio, per essere poi riposto altrettanto velocemente.
La costruzione stabile delle gambe offre un sostegno robusto al Chap Tray dai bordi alti. È possibile posizionare e impilare uno o più di questi contenitori sotto al sedile dello sgabello per riporvi il telefono dell'utilizzatore, cavi, documenti e altri utensili.
