Organic Modern Armchairs
ORGANIC MODERN STYLE
Organic modern furniture is characterized by clean lines, an overall uncomplicated aesthetic and a prioritizing of natural, sustainable materials, such as wood and stone. There are lots of earth tones and natural-world textures rather than bright color palettes or fabrics embellished with busy patterns.
Organic furniture is minimalist and, owing to the ideas of venerable architect Frank Lloyd Wright, designed for warm spaces that promote harmony between human habitation and the great outdoors. Organic modern design, including in furniture and architecture, emerged in the 1930s.
Designers such as Andrianna Shamaris, Alguacil & Perkoff and Jörg Pietschmann — all known for organic modern design — have created furniture that brings dynamic and unpredictable energy to home interiors while emphasizing the importance of a relationship with the natural world.
Striking an appealing balance between our living spaces and nature doesn't have to be an arduous task — the broad selection of original organic modern furniture on 1stDibs includes solid wood tables, bamboo seating options, hand-knotted wall tapestries and more.

Pair of Figural Full Body Carved Teak Lioness Hunting Lodge Chairs
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This spectacular pair of hand carved teak lioness club chairs are front-cover-magazine-worthy and can add a bit of the unexpected to any style of room. The color is a deep reddish brown that more closely resembles rosewood or Brazilian Jacaranda however is crafted from teak. Gorgeous details in every square inch, consider using at the ends of a long dining table, in a living room or den, next to a fireplace, in a library, or even inside a large bedroom suite. Give your room some romantic fancy and mystique and for designers with clients who love animals, this is the perfect touch of Organic Modern to add to any room.
