IKEA KIMME Armchair
Code: 2607018Product detailed description
The KIMME armchair, made of red reinforced plastic, was designed by Swedish designers Knut and Marianne Hagberg at the turn of the millennium. The pair worked for the IKEA chain from 1979 and, during their forty-one-year tenure, designed more than 2,100 products, ranging from toys and toothbrush holders to the famous tables. They also contributed to the design of the iconic blue FRAKTA bag, inspired by Asian plastic rice bags. They adhered to IKEA's principles of so-called democratic design, emphasising functionality, form, quality, sustainability and affordability.
The armchair consists of a red plastic shell with a grey rubber strip around the base. It bears the distinctive features of the noughties, which were typified by rounded monolithic shapes, bold colours and low-maintenance synthetic materials. The chair is durable and suitable for both playful interiors and outdoor spaces such as terraces and gardens. It is space-efficient thanks to the material used and its stackability, which makes it easy to store multiple pieces. Thanks to the handle on the back, it is easy to carry. We have thoroughly cleaned the armchair and it is in good original condition. It has minor scuffs on the entire surface.
