Inspired by the window frame, Lucarne is a low dining chair with a simple and clean outline. Cutouts on the back imitate the shadow of the light shining through the window. The blue upholstery fabric represents the sky. With a shoulder-high back, Lucarne becomes a divider that creates a private space. The mechanism in the back allows people to pack it flat for transportation purposes.
