Sal is a hardwood lounge chair inspired by sculpture and the organic curves found within nature. Smooth transitions flow throughout the chair and connect each piece almost seamlessly -- like that of a tree. The design attracts through its unique softness which contrasts the inherent rigidity of its material. The continuous curves invoke an inviting feeling, urging those to glide their hands along its edges. With its wide armrests and contoured seat, Sal provides a very comfortable lounging experience to all who sit in it.
