Hippo Steel Chair

The soft, rounded forms that give the Hippo series its friendly and confident silhouette are retained, but the use of steel brings a new sense of lightness.

Thanks to the strength of the material, the frame can be made with thinner dimensions without sacrificing durability, giving the chair a more streamlined and contemporary profile. Crafted from tubular steel, the frame is lightweight and easy to move, ideal for flexible spaces like meeting rooms, canteens and collaborative environments. 

The design of Hippo Steel retains the same architectural quality as its wooden counterpart, with the familiar two-legged profile that has become synonymous with the series. An elegant bend in the steel frame is made intentionally, highlighting a conscious design choice to add a curve to the otherwise angular and stringent frame. The detail also reflects the presence of human craftsmanship in making the chair and serves as an attempt to soften the look of the chair - a very characteristic trait of NORR11 designs.
