Honest construction.Built to be seen.
Steel-and-bent-ply seating in the mid-century institutional school-chair tradition — splayed A-frame steel, bent-ply oak panels and visible chrome fasteners sized to read as design detail. One coherent vocabulary across dining floor and bar, specified for hospitality programs that want engineered honesty without losing the warmth of visible wood.
Made to outlast service.
Square-tube steel in matte powder coat, bent-ply oak seat and back, and visible chrome fasteners — no covers, no upholstery to wear out. The same construction logic that kept 1950s school chairs in service for decades, executed at contract-grade specifications.
A school-chair, reconsidered.
Drawn from the Result-tradition originals by Friso Kramer and Wim Rietveld, the Madewell family scales a single A-frame geometry from dining height to bar — a coherent design language for restaurant floors, café programs, taprooms and design-led F&B.
