Not many designers design rocking chairs, but Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen have always been intrigued by them. “At home, we used to have a little rocking chair which I used to sit in a lot,” says Hannes. “And when I’m sitting on a regular chair, I tend to balance on the back legs, too.” They designed this rocking chair not long after they created their first chairs, in 2012, and it stands out with its combination of straight and curved lines and the exciting dialogue between the materials.
