The Lounge Chair with Upholstery

A functional piece of art designed with classic, simple, and sculptural elements in mind. The Lounge Chair with Upholstery from Mater draws the eyes, embraces the body, and satisfies the soul with an eco-friendly construction made using the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. The piece is made with FSC-certified wood from responsibly managed forests that respect the local habitat. With the goal of making a difference, designer Space Copenhagen harnesses this elegant, sustainable material and creates a clean, artful structure. The simple seductiveness of its shapes illustrates Space Copenhagen’s push for a timeless or slow aesthetic. While not just for show, shapes like that of the backrest round then bend in to pleasantly embrace the body. Elegant upholstery applied to the back and seat amplifies the comfort while doing so with sophistication.
