Proto Chair Out by Plus Halle is the outdoor and semi-outdoor variant of Nick Ross's Proto lounge chair — a version of the Chair whose material treatments and construction are specified for exposure to varying weather conditions, UV light and moisture, extending the Proto series' presence from purely indoor environments into covered terraces, outdoor lounge areas, sheltered courtyards and the semi-exposed ground-floor zones of hotel and hospitality buildings. The Chair Out retains the same design character as the Chair In — the Proto series' process-honest material quality, the resolved form and the relaxed lounge seating proportion — in materials suited to outdoor use.

The Proto Chair Out is a valuable specification for hotel and hospitality projects where the outdoor or semi-outdoor lounge area is treated as an extension of the interior design environment rather than as a separate category of less considered contract outdoor furniture. By deploying the Chair Out on a covered terrace or courtyard alongside the Chair In in the adjacent indoor space, a continuous design language can be maintained across the indoor-outdoor transition — one of the more challenging specification problems in contemporary hospitality and residential architecture. The outdoor material specification ensures longevity in exposed conditions without sacrificing the design quality and material character of the Proto series.

Architects and interior designers specifying the Proto Chair Out for hotel terraces, residential outdoor lounges and semi-exposed hospitality environments will find the DWG drawing and CAD block useful for outdoor furniture layout and clearance planning. The 3D model and Revit family support BIM-accurate coordination across indoor-outdoor project models. A considered outdoor-rated lounge chair specification for any project extending the Proto series' design language beyond the interior envelope.

Available as a 2D DWG drawing, 3D model and Revit file.
