Frequently Asked Questions

Who designed the Moroso Shortwave Chair?

The Shortwave Chair was designed by Diesel Designers, the creative studio behind the Diesel Living furniture line, in 2013. The collaboration with Moroso has produced pieces that blend fashion-world sensibility with rigorous furniture craft.

What is the frame material of the Shortwave Chair?

The Shortwave Chair is built on an ash wood structure, chosen for its strength-to-weight ratio and the clean, refined lines it allows at a compact scale.

Is the Shortwave Chair suitable for contract or hospitality use?

Yes. Its compact proportions, durable ash frame, and made-to-order upholstery options make it well suited to dining, hospitality, and contract environments where both performance and visual character are required.

Can the Shortwave Chair be customized?

As a made-to-order piece, the Shortwave Chair can be specified with a range of upholstery fabrics, leathers, and finishes, allowing the chair to be integrated within a broader interior concept.

What distinguishes the Shortwave from a standard armchair?

The wing-like arms extend from the backrest rather than from the seat frame, giving lateral support with far less visual bulk. This keeps the silhouette lean and graphic while maintaining functional comfort at the dining table.
