Dirk van der Kooij first fell in love with low resolution 3D printing as a student, fulfilling his search for honest and functional ornamentation. The Chubby Chair remains his most playful child of this process, which finds its alien form through the limitations of a self-developed, plastic extruding robot. Designed in 2012, the Chubby maintains an affectionate position in the standard collection. It is held in the permanent collections of the Vitra Design Museum and The Design Museum in London.

As the colour is achieved through sporadically introducing pigment to the extruder, each chair is to be considered a one-off in terms of its unique colour expression.
