Neptunus Easy Chair

The Neptunus Easy Chair from Gärsnäs gives solid oak an unexpected sense of rhythm. Åke Axelsson's 1994 design frames a softly upholstered interior in warm timber, allowing the chair's structure to become part of its beauty rather than something to conceal. The oak traces a crisp outline around the seat before opening into the airy construction of the frame, creating an intriguing balance between enclosure and lightness. Fabric or leather brings another layer of richness to the composition, softening the geometry and inviting you inward. Compact yet deeply considered, this chair has the presence of a chair that reveals more the longer it lives in a room.
