Cut-Off Jeans GUBI Grace Chairs

Invited by GBA’s partner Gubi to select a chair to include in Hey What’s Up?, a debut collection, Camella chose the Grace Lounge Chair by female architect Tove Kindt Larsen. Designed in 1936, the inside-outside chair is constructed from rattan, a solid timber vine with properties similar to fabric in how it can move and flex.

Camella sourced thrift jeans, cut them into scraps to weave into the rattan framework, and interlaced a new cover for upholstered seating. Denim, like rattan, is a material that acquires character and beauty as it ages.
