Designed by the creative partnership of Komplot Design, the GUBI Counter Stool is the first furniture design to be based on the innovative technique of moulding three-dimensional veneer.

The 3D design gives the stool a comfortable seat and sense of lightness as all edges are pointing away from the user. The simple and clean counter stool design offers an uncluttered look that with its possibility for fully upholstery in any fabric or leather, is perfectly suited for the private home or commercial space where individuality and unique pieces of furniture are sought for.

The furniture design has been awarded in several prestigious design awards and is included in the permanent exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.


Komplot Design

Founded in 1987, Komplot Design, a partnership of Poul Christiansen & Boris Berlin, has designed furniture and created multidisciplinary design soluions for both Danish and international companies. Their Gubi chair design has been displayed in important exhibitions, such as MoMA, 2004 and has won several prestigious awards, including The Danish Design Prize 2004 and the RED DOT Design Award 2004.

"We believe that through design history, many traditions within the field have been preoccupied with the idea of total control over function, form, material and so on. This striving for control of our surroundings is probably a typical urge of Western culture, being both its principal strength and its greatest failing. Instead of fighting against "mistakes" by forcing the material to behave "perfectly" (often against its nature), we choose to accept the way the material "wants" to behave, the way its nature tells it to move..."

Komplot Design created a new series of dining tables and center bases for the Gubi chair in 2013.


At GUBI, we're on a continual quest. A journey. Fuelled by our passion to discover overlooked icons from the past and future icons in the making, we've made a distinctive name for ourselves in the international design arena as a dynamic design force to be reckoned with.
