Folding Chairs
A folding chair that measures just two centimetres when closed and hangs on the wall like a picture: the Fläpps folding chairs are conceived from a single wooden panel – open, a stable, comfortable chair; closed, a flat wall object. Made from birch plywood, load-bearing and durable, they come oiled, in white or black, and as printed design variants. Ideal for the kitchen and for guests: there when you need it, gone when you don't. Part of the fold-down Fläpps wall system.

One chair, one panel – how flat can a folding chair be?
Two centimetres. That's the entire depth a Fläpps folding chair takes up when closed. What makes that possible is a design that does without everything that rattles and pinches: no bulky frame, no hinge mechanism to catch your fingers in – just a precisely milled panel whose parts fold into one another. Open, the chair stands firm and sits comfortably; closed, it disappears on the wall or in the narrowest gap behind a cupboard.
A wooden folding chair: plywood instead of a plastic frame
With most folding chairs, wood is just decoration on metal legs. At Fläpps, it plays the lead role: birch plywood, a layered wood that combines stability with low weight – a wooden folding chair that's happy to be folded open and shut every day, and keeps doing so for years. And one that holds up to more than you'd credit a 2 cm panel with: officially rated to 100 kg – in practice, if anything, an understatement. For the surface, you have the choice: an oiled wood finish for purists, solid-colour HPL in white, HPL in black – or one of the printed motifs.
Folding chairs for the kitchen and for guests – there when you need them
The kitchen is the natural habitat of the folding chair: usually two chairs are enough, but sometimes six people turn up. Fläpps folding chairs wait flat on the wall or in a niche and are ready in seconds – guest chairs that need no storage room. The fold-down kitchen wall table fits right alongside: table and chairs built on the same principle, together a whole dining corner on zero floor space.
A design classic on the wall: the folding chair as wall decoration
A chair you hang up like a picture – and that looks like one, too. The printed Fläpps variants turn the design folding chair into a wall object: hung up, it shows its motif; taken down, it seats a guest. The award-winning design has earned its place among the folding-chair design classics – or rather, hung its place. No other folding chair disappears quite so beautifully.
Which Fläpps folding chair suits you?
Pure wood for purists, colour for the bold, motifs for anyone who likes their wall to do double duty. And if you want to take the principle further: the whole Fläpps system also folds tables, shelves and desks onto the wall.
Frequently Asked Questions
How stable is the Fläpps folding chair?
The folding chair is rated for 100 kg and stands stable – even with daily use. Despite its slim build, nothing wobbles.
How flat does the folding chair fold up?
Folded up, the chair is only about 2 cm deep. That way you can stow it space-savingly on the wall, behind the door or in the cupboard. You can even hang the printed variants on the wall like a picture when folded.
What wood is the folding chair made of?
The folding chair is made from birch plywood – multi-layered, glued birch wood. That makes it solid and durable.
What colours and designs does the folding chair come in?
The folding chair comes as an oiled wood variant with visible birch, in solid-colour HPL white and black, and in printed motifs by various artists. So you'll find the right variant, from the plain design chair to the colourful eye-catcher.
Is the folding chair comfortable?
Yes, it is. At first glance, the Fläpps folding chair doesn't look especially comfortable. But the movable backrest and the slight spring of its cantilever geometry make it a folding chair you're happy to sit on for hours at a time.
Is the folding chair suitable as a design chair for the home office?
Yes. As a space-saving, foldable design chair it fits right at the desk and disappears flat on the wall at the end of the day. As a design classic, it also looks the part.
