Prototype Chair Combines Comfort and Practicality

May 2009

The inspiration behind this chair for Poltrona Frau was the challenge of combining the potentially contradictory functions of comfort and stacking in a chair that is used for long periods of time. The design is intended to provide support in various seating postures and the fully upholstered version contributes to acoustic attenuation.
