The source of inspiration for the premium class lounge chair was Luther's summer villa, which was built in the Nordic Art Nouveau style.
Luther's values and handwriting reflected in their furniture, which was described as innovative and of high quality. If the company exists now. It would be a nordic luxury brand. Top notch furniture and premium products would be reflected in the Luterma company.
Analysing the plywood pendings and needs of people who have a premium lifestyle, chair was born. This lounge chair have movement and complexity. Offering a high quality and luxurious feeling that can be proudly placed in the living room not only for enjoyment but also as an eye-catcher. The dark shade of walnut creates an exotic feel that bends from the armrests to the backrest. The design with straight lines and curved corners creates a lot of space for discovery around the chair.
