Frequently Asked Questions

What shell material options does the Beetle Bar Chair come in?

The Beetle Bar Chair is available in three shell configurations: un-upholstered polypropylene, fully upholstered fabric or leather, and 3D veneer with an upholstered front. Each option offers a distinct material expression while maintaining the chair's characteristic organic silhouette.

Who designed the GUBI Beetle collection?

The Beetle collection was designed by GamFratesi, the studio founded by Danish architect Stine Gam and Italian architect Enrico Fratesi. Their practice is rooted in a dialogue between Scandinavian and Italian design traditions, and the Beetle chair, introduced in 2013, remains one of their most celebrated works.

What base finishes are available for the Beetle Bar Chair?

GUBI offers the Beetle Bar Chair in a range of base finishes, including various metal options. Because the chair is made to order, specific finish availability can vary, and specifying for a project warrants direct consultation for current configurations.

Is the Beetle Bar Chair suitable for commercial hospitality projects?

Yes. The Beetle Bar Chair is widely used in hospitality interiors, from hotel bars to restaurant counter seating, owing to its durability, adaptable materiality, and formal coherence across varied interior contexts.

What is the seat height of the Beetle Bar Chair?

The Beetle Bar Chair is scaled for bar-height seating, typically suited to counters and bar tops in the range of 40 to 42 inches. Exact dimensions should be confirmed through product specifications for precise planning in architectural or interior applications.
