Karakter GB LOUNGE Fabric armchair

GB Lounge is a modular lounge chair.‎ Dutch industrial designer Gijs Bakker had already established a reputation for his aluminum jewelry when he decided to turn his attention to designing a chair.‎ Inspired by a competition held by Dunlop, the rubber foam manufacturer, Bakker took a piece of foam, bent it at a 90 degree angle, and fixed it in a metal frame.‎ The result was the GB Lounge, a modular lounge chair whose simple silhouette is enhanced by invitingly overstuffed upholstery.‎ Originally coined “the Levi’s Chair,” Bakker was determined that his design – much like a pair of well-loved jeans – would act as an easygoing antidote to the previous generation’s stiffer tastes.‎ Today, its functionality has been enhanced further with the addition of feet that raise it slightly from the floor for added comfort.‎ Available as a one-seater chair, or with the addition of a pouf, the GB Lounge can be arranged in a variety of ways by connectors that transform it from a solo chair into a multiple seating system.‎ Material: Steel frame, full foam body Finish: Powder coated Upholstery: Cassina textiles Further info from manufacturer on GB LOUNGE Karakter
