Intended to question the typical form of a chair, the C11 chair by 2DODESIGN flaunts a quirky proportion from a standard chair while maintaining its functionality. Its 2D profile creates a special visual tension and adds a triangular graphic effect when stacked. Designed by Dietmar Fissl, the award-winning chair offers functionality from every perspective.
The chair is designed to consciously question the technically and historically determined semantics of a standard four-legged chair. It uses strikingly changed proportions to present a solitary feature that feels sculptural rather than just utilitarian. It pairs technical precision with minimalist form.
Unlike standard stacking chairs, where the stack is merely a storage solution, the C11 is designed in a way that the stacked pack creates a specific graphic effect. This makes the chairs formally effective and visually interesting even when not in use.
Beyond its status as an award-winning studio concept, the chair maintains a precise and clean silhouette. It expands the historically grown expectations from a set in both functional and visual aspects. Interesting in its looks, the chair is a quiet, minimalist furniture piece that naturally uplifts the aesthetics of any space.

As a studio concept, the Fissl C11 is not mass-produced for the general retail market like the common office chairs. Aesthetically stackable, the chair alters traditional proportions, making it a standout sculptural piece. The form of the seat is inspired by the visual and desirable tension it creates in the viewer’s mind without changing its motive.
The Germany-based 2DODESIGN intends for the C11 chair to be complete individually and when stacked.
