the danish designer kasper salto has designed the nap™ chair for fritz hansen. nap is a series of light stacking chairs designed for optimum sitting comfort regardless of the sitting position. nap is an abbreviation of normal, active and passive – because sitting is in actual fact constant movement.


nap is available in two varieties, with and without armrests. the back of the shell has a high-gloss surface, and the front is matt and ribbed to emphasise the geometry of the chair. to minimise undesired noise and the risk of floor marks, the front and back leg ferrules have different sizes. all varieties come in four different colours: milk-white, butter-yellow, pepper-grey, coffee-brown.

the shell is moulded and dyed through in nylon (polyamide – pa6), which allows the material to be recycled. the underside cover and the spacing blocks are made of nylon and tpe (thermo plastic elastomer), respectively. both are dyed through in the colour of the shell. the frame is made of 14 mm steel and powder coated in colours corresponding to the shell, or inchromed steel. the leg ferrules are made of black tpe. the chair stacks 8-10 units at a time with and without arm rests.

new! nap is now also available as bar stool / counter stool nap.
