S.16 Chair Brown Galfanitas 2020 Spot Color Brown/Pastel Green
The Model S.16 industrial chair features the so-called "compass legs" characteristic of the Dutch mid-century period. Its 2020 spot color is "brown/pastel green." The Model S16 industrial chair was produced in the late 1950s and early 1960s, combining affordability with practicality and durability to withstand heavy use in public facilities such as schools, offices, hospitals, and dining halls. Its share has since expanded to many facilities across Japan, making it one of the company's signature products. While production was once discontinued, the S16, which has a global following as a vintage piece, resumed production in 2014. Its simple, industrial appearance and wide color palette, inspired by the industrial designs of Jean Prouve, Wim Rietveld, and Friso Kramer, transcend time and environment, making it suitable for use in a variety of spaces, from residential to commercial facilities. Compass Legs: The Compass Chair, considered a representative example of Dutch mid-century design, features distinctive inverted V-shaped legs, commonly known as "compass legs," and was produced by multiple manufacturers from the 1950s to the 1960s. Galfanitas also produced them, but unlike other Compass Chairs, they were primarily used in public facilities, schools, and government agencies, rather than in private homes. Special Material: PAG Wood: The plywood used for the seat and backrest is a special composite material called "PAG Wood," developed by the German company PAGHOLZ. PAG Wood is a reinforced material made by compressing beech plywood and special resin, and is shock-resistant, durable, and water-resistant. The seat features fine textures to prevent slipping, demonstrating the attention to detail that went into the S.16. 2020 Domestic Limited Spot Color: The 2020 domestic limited spot color is a refreshing, light, and airy "pastel green." The brown seat combines a pop of cuteness with industrial elements. Source: https://www.truss.jp/
