David Geckeler chair design “Nerd” was honoured by Beckers International Design Award 2011 and is the winner of Muuto Talent Award 2012. “Through an innovative integration between seat and back and precise detailing, Nerd has a strong personality and a very iconic character. While the appearance of Nerd is unique, the overall expression, material and craftsmanship all have references to classic Scandinavian design values. I am really happy with the result; a chair that stands out as a very personal and distinct interpretation of an all-wood chair.”
