Ernst Moeckl – 6 x Kangaroo chairs in white, for Horn, 1960s

Six white Kangaroo chairs designed by Ernst Moeckl for Horn Collection, West Germany, in 1968. These stackable chairs from the late 1960s and early 1970s are known as both the Kangaroo chair and the Z chair due to the distinctive shape of the legs. The chairs were very innovative for their time, both due to their futuristic design and the innovative use of materials.

The chairs are made of Baydur (polyurethane durom) and finished with high-quality DD lacquer. The material is light, strong and durable, making them both functional and aesthetically interesting.
