The Penguin Lounge Chair is a mid-century masterpiece. Reclining and harmonious, but with plenty of boldness, it is characterized by calmness and balance. Sitting in this deep, low chair feels comfortable and safe. The chair embraces you. When furniture designer Ib Kofod-Larsen designed the Penguin Chair in 1953, he focused on the person who was to sit in it. Its curved back and angled seat cradle the body, and its otherwise remarkably straightforward design provides a surprisingly high level of comfort. The Penguin Lounge Chair has a graphic purity that enables it to interact seamlessly with other furniture pieces.
