Iconic Fatboy products

Fatboy's iconic product is still The Original Fatboy Ottoman, an oversized rectangular beanbag chair. Made from durable, water-resistant, fire-retardant nylon fabric, it is filled with precisely 3,542,897 polystyrene beads to ensure maximum comfort. Original can be used as an outdoor or indoor chair, as a small day bed or paired with the Rock'n'roll rocking chair. The beanbag is also available in the Original Junior version for children, Original Outdoor, Original Stonewashed in cotton, and about twenty colors.
Another celebrated Fatboy product is the Edison lamp designed by the DeMakersVan collective and inspired by Thomas Edison's light bulb. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, Edison is a wireless, USB-rechargeable table lamp that features LED technology. The polycarbonate Edison lamp sports a simple, traditional shape with a round base and conical shade. It is available in Edison The Medium and Edison The Grand versions. The latter is a floor lamp measuring 90x60 cm with an app to switch it on and off and control lighting intensity. Edison The Petit is designed to furnish children's bedrooms and can be customized with the Cooper Cappies lampshade.
Fun and ironic products inspired by inflatable balloon animals include the Attackle garden bench and the Hot Dog and Holly inflatable sculptures. Specifically designed for outdoor spaces, the Lamzac collection includes a series of inflatable lounge chairs. Extremely practical, they can be transported and blown up anywhere without the aid of pumps. Characterized by a sturdy waterproof ripstop nylon outer covering, the Lamzac garden armchair and Lamzac garden sofa versions are available in the Lamzac Capri, Lisboa, Sky Blue, Tulip Orange, Jungle Green colors.

Fatboy: surprising furnishings and complements

The rich and varied Fatboy catalog includes striking furnishings and complements like the Thierry lamp collection or the Rockcoco hanging lamp. The Candyofnie lamp collection is based on an original and engaging concept that lets customers compose their own fixtures. Inspired by the childhood game of bead stringing, Candyofnie is a kit consisting of a 180 cm long cable and a series of 8 transparent glass "candies" in different shapes and colors. An online configurator allows users to compose their own lamps, select the desired length, and combine the various pieces. The Bolleke outdoor pendant lamp, with wireless and LED technologies, features a bowl-shaped lampshade made of High-Density Polyethylene HDPE and a knot-shaped silicone rubber hook.
The cylindrical PFFFH Ottoman designed by Jukka Setälä comes in generous dimensions. Its classic and elegant shape is combined with the refined Jaquard by Sunbrella upholstery, with retro-inspired patterns in bright colors. The evolution of PFFFH is the modular Dan-nie lounge ottoman, suitable for furnishing hotel waiting areas and public spaces. Dan-nie can be configured as a round bench with a central backrest or as a zigzag bench, while its different elements can be used as coffee tables, footrests or accessories. The polycarbonate Transloetje lamp can be considered the evolution of the Edison lamp in a transparent version in 8 different colors.
With its large dimensions and superior resistance, the Headdemock hammock can accommodate up to two people. Headdemock can be fixed to vertical supports, like poles or trees, or to a self-supporting metal structure. The Fatboy catalog also contains elegant and practical pet cushions like Doggielounge and Doggielounge Nametag, which can be personalized with the pet's name, as well as the plush CO9 XXL and CO9 Xs Velvet bunny-shaped poufs.
