Bikini figure: DKW-2 Wire Chair by Vitra

The shape of the DKW Wire Chairs is known as a variation of the Eames Plastic Side Chairs - also known is the wooden base that combines industrial charm and homeliness.

The Wire Chairs, made of welded steel wire, take up the theme of the organically shaped and one-piece seat shell of their plastic relatives and refine it through the expression of their transparency and their technical sophistication.

Because of the shape of its cushions, the DKW-2 is often referred to as a "bikini".
