Minimalist design with maximum comfort
A minimalist and functional design, with the highest level of comfort. The seat and backrest of the Revolt are ergonomically shaped and move along with you, making sitting extra pleasant.

A chair for everyone.
Iconic Dutch Design
The Revolt was designed by Friso Kramer in 1953, this marked the start of a revolution. The frame of pressed and curved sheet steel, the seat and back using new plastic bending technology and the innovative click system with which the frame and seat are attached to each other, make the design exceptional. With The U-shaped profiles where more resistant to pressure than the tube-frame chairs. Also you could save material, resulting in a cheaper and lighter chair. In terms of ergonomics, the design was based on the latest insights. The first real industrial mass product in the Netherlands was revolutionary and therefore deserves its name up in lights.
