Morgan Contract Furniture
The Bilbao chair designed by Tim Rundle, is a contemporary and curvaceous tub chair, offering a generous and inviting aesthetic in a relatively small footprint. Combining crisp defined edges with gentle, organic surfaces, Tim and Morgan sought to create a chair with a solid, yet sensuous presence, being fully upholstered and planted on the ground. Through its luxurious soft forms, Bilbao evokes a retreat-like atmosphere in commercial spaces, including hospitality, cruise and workplaces.
Tim Rundle is a London based industrial designer specialising in furniture and lighting design as well as interiors, installations and strategic consultancy. A preoccupation with simplicity, improvement and the pragmatic application of creativity; combined with a rigorous and knowledgeable approach to the technical aspects of materials and manufacturing leads to results that are, at the same time, useful, engaging and relevant.
