In an era dominated by mass production, there are some artforms that simply can’t be mass produced, and at Studio Stirling we believe that our welding is one of them.

Each hanging chair is individually forged and welded by artisans - masters of steel - who, with the unmistakable human touch, their deep knowledge and experience, combined with the precision of their hand-formed lines, curves and bends - gives each piece its soul.

As a global trend, people are seeking authentic work that bears the signature of the maker, and that, they will certainly find in how we treat our process of welding steel into Studio Stirling’s signature silhouettes.

2025 is all about being, but not just being okay — it’s about well-being.

Designers and architects across the globe are rethinking how spaces can support calm and restoration. It is no longer just about aesthetics, it’s about how a space makes you feel.

Studio Stirling’s hanging chairs were born from the idea of suspended serenity — a quiet moment to yourself.

Installed indoors by a sunlit window, or outdoors under a garden canopy, they become not just a focal point but a sanctuary.

As wellness-centred interiors take centre stage this summer, there is growing demand for items that embody calm. Studio Stirling speaks directly to this need — beautiful objects that bring comfort and meaning.

Because the most luxurious thing in any space today? A moment of stillness.

Meet Camellia — a confident coral-pink we’re seeing everywhere this summer.

It’s a tone that softens steel while standing strong on its own, and we think it is perfect for our hanging chairs. Bright enough to turn heads, subtle enough to style your way.

When great design finds its way across the globe, something remarkable happens – our handcrafted chairs are shared with the world.

But for them to reach new corners, it takes a partnership grounded in a shared purpose and built on a solid foundation.

From our studio in South Africa, we are proud to see our hanging chairs integrated into the dynamic showroom at Modern Studio in Laguna Beach—an inspiring and design forward space.

Known for their modern Italian-inspired design and bespoke approach, Modern Studio is a family-run business that believes in creating beautiful, considered spaces that reflect the people who live in them.

Set in the heart of Southern California, their flagship showroom offers the perfect setting for our chairs to make a bold statement while inviting pure comfort.

Our mantra for the day from the Milan Furniture Fair is "Outdoors is the new indoors".

Clearly outdoor spaces are having a moment – and for good reason.

Creating a space that invites you to pause and reconnect (with nature or yourself) is more than a trend — it’s a way to feel more grounded in your day.

Our Studio Stirling hanging chairs are designed to offer a gentle place to land wherever you are.

More than just a chair, it’s a seat that invites you to slow down, stretch out, and simply be.

Great design is more than just an aesthetics – it is a conversion, a connection, a story brought to life.

It requires creative minds coming together, merging ideas and above all collaborating.

The Face of Africa Leather Sling is exactly that - an inspired collaboration between Studio Stirling and South African Artist and Designer Tsepo Makate.

Stripped to its essence, this chair is a study in contrasts— sturdy steel meets the warmth of hand-dyed, hand-carved leather. This, coupled with Tsepo’s intricate illustration, etched by hand, transforms the piece into something beyond furniture—where structure and storytelling, craftsmanship and creativity, come together as one.

“As a designer you want to see your design, or your art come alive in different forms. The collaboration with Studio Stirling made that possible - now my art lives in a form I would have never expected. Today wherever I go and whoever I show my portfolio to, that piece of work is always proudly displayed in there, and someone out there has my art in their home.” – Tsepo Makate

As the Milan Art Fair approaches, with this year’s theme 'Among Friends,' we are reminded of the values championed by Robert Rauschenberg: openness to the world, interdisciplinarity, and commitment to dialogue and collaboration.

At Studio Stirling, we embrace these principles, reflecting on our collaborations and the use of interdisciplinary art forms to create contemporary hanging chairs that make a bold statement.
