Combining a traditional outline with a light, organic form, this revolutionary interpretation of the club chair set new standards in modern furniture design.‎ Fixed to the frame at only four points, Armchair 41’s suspended seat appears to float and provides an astounding degree of elasticity.‎ Since wood changes over time, the armrests are formed from a single piece that is then split in half, ensuring that as “Paimio” ages, it remains perfectly balanced.‎ Designed by Alvar Aalto in 1932, Armchair 41 was created for the interior of a tuberculosis sanatorium in the Finnish city of Paimio and is considered one of Aalto’s masterpieces.‎Frame: Form-bent solid birch lamellaSeat shell: Form-pressed birch plywoodThis product is available in black or white.‎
