Fox and Freeze is a creative cooperation between 2 Belgian designers, James Van Vossel and Tom De Vrieze. Vos is Dutch for Fox and vriezen means Freeze [Belgium has 3 official languages : Dutch, French and German]. We started our cooperation in october 2009. Fox & Freeze Micro-Entreprise is currently offering only 1 type of product with 1 colour variant, the FF1 Grey. In the past we made several colours, but we would like to keep it easy.

This Felt Chair FF1 or Fox & Freeze1 is an indoor lounge seat made out of 1 square sheet of synthetic felt (PES.There is no loss of material (except from the drilled holes).The structure is self-supporting, this means no addtional support with wood or metal or other.

The flax rope contracts the chair and finishes the chair aesthetically.The shell and base are not separated from the sheet but remain connected. Starting from a square surface, the felt sheet is twisted and twisted again, just like a scarf, ending in a symmetric and but also an asymmetric object, this is literally forms follows function.
