Cricket chair

Andries van Onck

The Cricket Chair is a striking example of postmodern design from the early 1980s, created by Dutch designer Andries van Onck in collaboration with Kazuma Yamaguchi for the Italian brand Magis. Constructed with a black steel frame and molded plastic seat and backrest, the Cricket Chair stands out for its bold circular seat, pill-shaped back, and linear support structure. It is not only visually engaging but also ingeniously practical. The chair folds flat to just a few centimeters thick, making it ideal for compact storage or wall hanging - an integrated sliding handle on the backrest makes it easy to carry or suspend.
