.03 by Maarten Van Severen for Vitra

It’s probably fair the say that Maarten Van Severen isn’t a particular favourite of the (smow)IT department. Not that they dislike Van Severen’s effortless aesthetic, but rather with his .03, .04, etc… Antwerp’s finest artisan of designer furniture is the proverbial fly in the ointent of the new (smow)live search.

Developed using technology originating from the NASA Mars Programme, the (smow)live search is amongst the most user friendly and responsive search features ever developed. Simply type in a minimum of three letters and you will be shown what you are looking for.

Just it has problems finding .03 by Maarten Van Severen.
Which is a shame because the .03 is among the most inventive and well-conceived chairs at smow, as well as being among the best sellers.

Although outwardly a wonderful minimalist product that passes effortlessly in numerous locations the real beauty of .03 lies within.

The back support is constructed from three metal bars placed over one another – leaf springs is the official term – which in combination with the flexible integral polyurethane foam shell means that the .03 has one of the most reactive and responsive backrests among the “general usage” chairs on the market today

Furthermore, that the integral polyurethane foam is comparable with the material used for steering wheels and so the .03 offers an extremely high level of sitting comfort.

Available in stacking or a non-stacking version, and seven colours the .03 can be used in number of locations and for a wide range of purposes.

More details on the .03 and the complete Maarten Van Severen Collection from Vitra can be found at smow.com
