The D9 Chair, produced by Tecta, was designed by the German designer Wofgang Hartauer.

The original idea of ​​the Bauhaus, “of floating and swinging”, is taken further with the D9 as Wolfgang Hartauer focuses on clever geometry. Posture for the body, aesthetics for the mind. After 100 years, Marcel Breuer receives a contemporary answer to his dream of floating and swinging. The D9 is the new further development of the cantilever chair model. A mixture of opulence and total reduction, lush from the side, held in a characteristic floating position from the front.

“We wanted to develop the cantilever chair of tomorrow,” says its designer Wolfgang Hartauer, “because the story of the chair without back legs is far from over. I was particularly fascinated by Marcel Breuer's vision of weightless sitting. I wanted to take up this visionary idea that in the future one would sit on an elastic column of air and implement it in a contemporary way."
Hartauer had courage and patience as he constructed, rejected, and extracted the design over two years time. Then there was his dynamic design. "I didn't want to create a concept chair that you leave after half an hour to switch to the sofa, but rather a piece of furniture that is so comfortable that you can end the evening on it."
The D9 Chair shows the precision that distinguishes all Hartauer designs. The tinkerer and mechanic among designers, whose tables roll, bowls tilt, while the accessories can be pushed as light as a feather, remains true to his line. The D9 also promises movement in the best sense of the word: that of floating and swinging.
“The swing is possible both forwards and backwards. That means, the open space of the seat, the frame geometry, accompanies the posture and goes with it. ”The new Hartauer, or the new cantilever chair, is also linked to the tube of the Breuer chair, the aesthetics of the endless line.
The follow-up question that occupied Wolfgang Hartauer was not just about aesthetics, but also about comfortable seating. The back and sides of the D9 have a sickle shape, inclined but with a round edge that surrounds the person sitting like a scarf. The essence of the D9 is reduction: one less instead of more. But today there is comfort, opulence and freshness - and the reworking of a small imperfection. The one that in earlier times caused the user to fall from the Olympus of cantilever sitting to the bottom of the facts: the moment of tipping forward. “The nice thing is that we were able to eliminate this shortcoming through the geometry. The body's center of gravity is moved backwards and is no longer on the front edge, ”explains Hartauer.
The D9 is more than just a nice gesture. The D9 stands for Bauhaus continues in the best sense of the word. Transferring traditions, thinking about the future, developing the present. Aesthetics without sacrificing, but dedicated to the idea of ​​aesthetics and comfortable seating.
