Walnut and Acrylic Chair, Wood Float Lounge Chair by Lauren Rottet

About the Item

The wood float chair blurs the lines between art and furniture and encourages an internal dialogue with the viewer. Is this art or can I sit on it? Both. Handcrafted from solid walnut, the frame is elegantly structured and supported by a transparent acrylic seat and back that gives the illusion as if the structure is floating all while casting playful shadows within its setting. The acrylic seat back with its natural wlanut frame acts as an interactive picture frame to artfully frame views Captivating and intriguing the wood float chair can stand alone with a beautiful exposed walnut finish. The Wood Float Chair is part of the Float Collection, originally designed by Lauren Rottet, when she bought the George Nelson house in Montauk and needed furniture that fit in with the mid-century modern hand crafted aesthetic and freed the spaces from visual clutter, allowing the inhabitants to see past the furniture to the architecture of the space, keeping the atmosphere lighter and more airy. The Wood Float Chair won a Chicago Athenaeum GOOD DESIGN Award with its sister piece, the Wood Float Bench.
