Mid-century modern walnut “Satellite” lounge chair designed by Milo Baughman in the 1970s, a sculptural statement piece that perfectly captures the designer’s talent for blending bold forms with exceptional comfort. Defined by its dramatic circular silhouette and low-slung profile, this iconic design feels both futuristic and timeless, embodying the relaxed refinement that made Baughman one of the most influential American designers of the mid-century era.
The chair has been meticulously restored and reupholstered in a luxurious light mocha velvet that beautifully accentuates its sweeping curves. New high-density foam provides outstanding comfort while preserving the chair’s original proportions and inviting lounge-like character. Beneath the upholstered body, a richly grained walnut base creates a striking contrast, grounding the design with warmth and natural beauty.
From every angle, the chair reveals an elegant interplay of soft curves and architectural form. Its oversized seat and enveloping backrest create a cocoon-like experience, offering the perfect place to unwind while showcasing the effortless glamour associated with Baughman’s work. The subtle sheen of the velvet catches the light beautifully, enhancing the chair’s sculptural presence and highlighting the craftsmanship involved in its restoration.
