Kusch + Co Universo Frame Chair Double Cantilever

Kusch + Co Universo Frame Chair Double Cantilever

The Kusch + Co Universo Frame Chair Double Cantilever is a refined seating solution that blends a minimalist silhouette with practical durability. Built around a double cantilever frame, this chair pairs a sculpted wooden shell with a streamlined skid base to create a piece that reads as both contemporary and timeless. The absence of armrests keeps the profile clean and versatile, letting the wooden shell take center stage while the frame provides confident, stable support.

Crafted with beech plywood for the shell, the chair benefits from a tactile, warm character that works beautifully in a range of interiors. The wooden elements are finished with a water-based lacquer that includes UV protection, preserving the surface and appearance over time. The metal frame is formed from powder-coated steel for resilience in daily use, and plastic glides on the skids protect floors while ensuring easy repositioning. All wood and wood-based materials are sourced in line with the EU timber regulation and come from certified forests, with FSC-certified authorized companies involved in the supply chain—an important detail for projects that prioritize responsible sourcing.

Functionally, the Universo model is designed for environments where flexibility and practicality matter. It comes assembled for immediate use and can be stacked for efficient storage, allowing multiple chairs to be put away when space is needed. The lack of a row connector and the sled-style frame make this chair especially suitable for settings that require quick reconfiguration such as meeting rooms, training spaces, visitor seating and café areas. Its subtle presence fits well in reception areas and collaborative workspaces where a balance of comfort and visual simplicity is desired.

Part of the uni_verso product line and identified by the factory designation UNI_VERSO STATIONARY CHAIR, CFS-STB FRAME, WOODEN/UPH BACK, this frame chair on skids represents Kusch + Co’s approach to functional design for contract and public interiors. Distributed in Germany and offered by a brand known for durable contract furniture, it provides a sensible choice for planners, designers and facility managers seeking a wooden shell chair with a durable steel frame and responsible material credentials. The Universo chair quietly supports daily use while contributing natural texture and considered engineering to any space.
