Since its launch in 2013, the Gubi Beetle bar stool has won over both the public and interior designers alike, becoming a familiar sight in the world’s most renowned restaurants. Its success stems from the balance between an eye-catching aesthetic, surprising comfort and a wide range of customisation options.
Inspired by the world of insects — and in particular the structure of beetles, a creative source for the GamFratesi duo — the stool offers a contemporary reinterpretation of the distinctive features of their bodies: the rounded shape, the protective shell, the fine sutures, the rigid exterior and the soft interior. An organic language that translates into an instantly recognisable design.
The Beetle Bar is available in three versions: fully upholstered and padded for a more sophisticated look; with a matt polypropylene shell, which is lightweight and functional; or with a padded seat and a 3D-moulded veneer shell, which adds textural depth. The slender metal bases and the stool’s height contribute to its lightness, allowing it to blend into any setting with natural elegance.
Thanks to the wide range of colours, finishes and possible combinations, the Gubi Beetle bar stool proves to be a versatile solution in both formal and informal settings. Its modular nature invites you to play with shades and upholstery to create a truly personal look.
