Designed from the outset for outdoor living, the MR01 Initial Outdoor armchair by Mathias Steen Rasmussen for Gubi translates its airy design into a welcoming and timeless aesthetic, becoming the centrepiece of moments spent outdoors with natural elegance. Its low wooden silhouette and rope weave, reminiscent of the nautical world, make it perfectly at home by the pool, on the terrace or in convivial spaces surrounded by nature.
Crafted from FSC®-certified iroko, an ideal wood for outdoor use, the structure retains its sculptural presence and purity of lines, just as in the indoor version. Here too, Rasmussen stays true to his design philosophy: the armchair is constructed without the use of screws, highlighting the precision of the craftsmanship and the formal continuity of the wood.
To ensure weather resistance, the Gubi MR01 Initial Outdoor armchair features a bespoke, high-performance polyester rope. Waterproof and perfect for poolside use, it is UV-resistant and retains its colour and integrity over time. The anti-deformation core prevents the rope from stretching, ensuring stability and constant comfort.
