Blu Dot Hot Mesh Barstool (Priced Each, Min 2 Pieces)
Chipper outdoor bar stool seeks derrières for at home enjoyment or café canoodling.
Hot Mesh takes its inspiration from the classic café chair designed by Thonet way back in 1859. You may not know it as the Thonet chair (or maybe you do!), but you know the one. We wanted to design a durable, stackable, inexpensive chair that could be used inside and out. The Thonet chairs’ use of two bent pieces of wood to form the seat back is a study in economy. To make our chair affordable, we used a similar strategy and tried to make a sturdy frame from the least amount of material, while also creating a nice silhouette. The last step was choosing the right material to finish the seat and back. Off-the-shelf materials like perforated metal and screen-like materials got the job done but were dull. We fixed that by creating our own pattern and custom perforated steel – turning a hot mess into Hot Mesh.

Blu Dot was founded in 1997 by designers John Christakos, Maurice Blanks, and Charlie Lazor. These two architects and one sculptor reunited after college, bonded by their mutual passion for creating beautiful modern lighting, interior and exterior furniture, storage, and accessories that are affordable and built to last. The business supports their “design habit” and desire to maintain control of the entire process, from product development to customer experience, in an attitude-free environment.
Everything BluDot makes and sells is designed in their Minneapolis studio. The goal has always been total collaboration, from design to materials, machines, packaging, and assembly. Their process includes seeking out and solving simple design problems. From there, a design brief is compiled to review the idea with the entire team so everyone is on board.
