Cuba Chair
The
MG501 Cuba Chair by Morten Gøttler takes extra seating to a new level. It
features a solid oak frame, with the cotton girths around the frame forming a
comfortable seat and back and providing excellent support as they gently follow
the body’s contours. This folding lounge chair is ideal as an extra or
permanent fixture. Its light and foldable frame can easily be hung on a wall or
placed on a floor stand for convenient storage. Meanwhile, the chair has all
the elegance of a sculpture with its natural materials, clean cotton webbing
and evident craftsmanship. In short, it beautifully embodies the concept of
complex simplicity. The MG501 Cuba Chair thus captures all Gøttler is known for
– his clean, easy aesthetic and well-thought-out form, as well as his designs
offering exquisite comfort, and close attention to detail – all created using
high-quality materials.

exceptional understanding of wood. After working with product development and design for a
number of companies, Morten Gøttler (b. 1944) opened his own design studio in
1972. He has since worked in a wide range of genres, including domestic art,
packaging, toys, graphics and lighting for Danish and international

furniture design, using an approach rooted in the modern Scandinavian design tradition and the strong belief
that innovation is the foundation for successful design. Gøttler’s clean,
easy aesthetic characterized by well-thought-out form, exquisite comfort,
and close attention to detail are all brought to life using high-quality
