Part of an extensive family of seating, the Prelude barstool is defined by organic lines and flowing contours that provide an attractive, inviting shape that delivers style and exceptional support. Available in both counter and bar height versions, Prelude is ideal for bars, cafes, and other high-table meeting spaces.

Harry met Claudia in 2001 while they were both earning degrees in interior design at the University of Applied Arts in San Salvador. They founded their design studio DUE in October 2004, motivated by the shared desire to create atypical furniture pieces suited to modern spaces. In 2005, they expanded their studies in furniture design at the Instituto Europeo di Disegno in Milan. Upon their return, they created their design lab called FabricaDUE, which operates through artisan techniques and local manual labor to manufacture the designs generated in the studio. Their works include residential interior architecture, space planning, retail interior design, and the creation of branding concepts for retail stores. Their clients include Albacrome, the largest publisher in Central America; Hush Puppies; and La Estacion.

Prelude's metal base is available in polished stainless steel and powder coat finishes. Contrasting textiles for the back and seat also present customizable options to accommodate a myriad of styles, please contact Hive for assistance ordering options not available online.
