An iconic example of Scandinavian Space Age design, this President Lounge Chair by Danish designer Steen Østergaard embodies the bold futurism and sculptural elegance that defined the late 1960s and early 1970s. Featuring a fluid white fiberglass shell with sweeping organic lines, the chair appears almost suspended in motion, balancing dramatic form with exceptional comfort.
