Set of 4 KFF ‘Sinus’ dining chairs – Karl-Friedrich Förster, Germany, 1984
Some designs stand out for what they don't do. No superfluous details, no trends that come and go — just a strong silhouette that still looks surprisingly modern decades later.
This set of four Sinus dining chairs was designed by Karl-Friedrich Förster for KFF in 1984 and demonstrates exactly why German design from this period is so beloved. The slender black steel construction appears to almost float, while the curved lines of the base create a sculptural appearance from every angle.
The seat and backrest are crafted from smoked black oak, giving the chairs an understated yet powerful presence. The contrast between the sleek frame and the warm wood creates a refined balance between modernism and craftsmanship. Whether standing around a round travertine table, combined with a minimalist concrete and wood interior, or serving as a statement in an eclectic setting — these chairs add character without dominating the space.
