A lounge true to form

The main idea of my seating furniture was to design a lounge chair with a clear and simple form, which allows to combine it with different types of furnitures as well as to place it as an eyecatcher in a room. The lateral view of the chair outlines a square (hight and length have the same dimensions), its front view two squares – one above the other and half the size of the lateral square (wood and cushion). The curved angles between the straight parts of the wood construction connect the whole chair in a fluid and dynamic way which stays in contrast to the overall rectangular silhouette.
Changing the colour or pattern of the cushion, which is just inserted in place from the side, allows you to get different variations.  The wood construction as well allows more than just one possibility – one is, as shown on the enclosed pictures, to build it with solid wood angles and veneered straight parts. A second option is to make the whole construction out of bonded veneers, which means that the texture of the wood goes orthogonal in comparison to the prototype shown in the pictures..

This is what the designer of the lifestylings.zürich’s lounge chair had to say about their lounge chair design. Upon first look when I saw the picture was that the particular shade of green went well with the shade of the wood. The design looks stiff and a lounge is supposed to be comfortable, I hope the foam from the backrest compensates for the stiffness of the seat. What do you think?
