Hive Chair
A Modern Evolution in Seating
A decade after its debut as a premium executive and waiting room chair, Hive has been reimagined to meet the dynamic demands of today’s lounge, hospitality, and office environments. Designed by Favaretto & Partners, this updated collection introduces new levels of comfort, versatility, and refined aesthetics.
At the heart of Hive is its sleek polyurethane shell, available in both chair and armchair variations with two backrest heights. The distinct vertical stitching and compact armrests create a bold yet elegant profile. Supported by a choice of solid wood four-leg bases or a sleek four-spoke steel swivel base, Hive seamlessly adapts to diverse interiors, from stylish lounge areas to contemporary workspaces.
