Naught One Pippin Chair Wins Green Edition of Good Design Awards

NaughtOne, a British contract furniture manufacturer that makes simple, beautiful designs for commercial settings, announces that it has been awarded a 2025 Green Good Design Award for its Pippin Chair, designed by Lucy Kurrein.
The Pippin Chair combines comfort, style, and circular design. Free of glue and staples, Pippin’s component parts can be individually repaired and replaced to extend the life of the chair or be recycled or reprocessed.
Pippin is the moveable lounge chair with a playful cone-shaped silhouette and a comfortable cupped sit that encourages people to gather where they like and stay awhile when they do. Compact yet solid and stable, its hidden wheels and a fashion-inspired strap handle (both optional) make it easy to slide Pippin to where it’s needed. Move it, twist it, turn it – connecting has never been so much fun.
While a typical upholstered product for the contract furniture market is constructed of a timber frame built using glue and staples, with cut-foam glued to the exterior – Pippin stands out with its ability to be easily separated.
The Green edition of the Good Design Awards – established in 1950 by former Museum of Modern Art curator Edgar Kaufmann, Jr. with Charles and Ray Eames, Russel Wright, George Nelson, and Eero Saarinen – is presented annually by the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
The Green edition of the awards program aims to provide recognition to organizations around the world whose projects and products help to advance a more sustainable world.
