About the Item
Modern style is firmly rooted in the design output of the early-to-mid-1900s, and is characterised by clear lines and simple colours. It promotes sleek, clean shapes and eliminates decorative additions that only served as embellishment. Scandinavian and wider European mid-century modern design portray a philosophy guided by functionality and simplicity, fitting right into the era’s ethos.
The shape of this chair prioritises its user, maintaining the focus on authentic simplicity, elegance, and most of all, comfort. This is most visible in the chair's round, welcoming body and choice of all-over upholstery. Moreover, this lounge chair is set apart from a classic slipper chair by the curved shape of the backrest, almost “hugging” its sitter. Not only is the chair well thought-out from a functional perspective, but the asymmetrical shape of the backrest showcases a uniqueness achieved purely through the simplicity of its lines - a mark of an expert cabinetmaker. The chair’s visual appeal and interest is enhanced by the seven tufted buttons on the backrest, which are asymmetrically placed towards the left side, balancing out the look. The off-white, ivory fabric adds a tactile dimension through its textured appearance, while the short, tapered legs add a modern feel, balancing out the voluptuous body. Rounded lines, unexpected curvature and innovative shape define the design of this chair.
Through the uncomplicated, yet distinctively unique design choices, this lounge chair maximises comfort and function while putting an emphasis on elegance and refinement. The harmony brought forth by the expert craftsmanship, the material choices and the overall design make this chair ideal for any modern interior and style.
