The proud creations of designer, Frederic Debackere are lightweight and arrive folded flat and thin on delivery. Pieces of the Slimmy Take Off Collection arrive with a protective film cover which peels off the surface when ready to display. They are made of a composite material of PVC and aluminum, which has an outdoor durability of 25 years. The Take Off Collection unfolds manually and requires only a few screws to assemble.

The designer, Frederic Debackere was inspired by pop up books he read as a child, the science of origami, and cardboard shipping insert. After a three year period of models the Slimmy brain teaser was solved. The main objective was achieved, to use a single sheet of material (24"x108") that would encompass the entire form of the chair.
