About the Item

The Chubby Chair by Kooij is a hallmark of the designer’s exploration into recycled plastics and the possibilities of material-driven design. In the Buttermilk colourway, its warm, creamy tone highlights the chair’s rounded proportions and clean, sculptural presence. Each chair is created through Kooij’s signature extrusion process, where reclaimed plastic is heated and shaped into thick, smooth strands that build the structure layer by layer. This method produces subtle irregularities and tonal shifts across the surface, emphasising both its handcrafted nature and the circular ethos behind its making. Although visually playful, the Chubby Chair is robust and highly functional, designed for long-term, everyday use. It stands as a clear expression of Kooij’s dedication to sustainable production, material innovation and accessible, thoughtfully made design.
