Strata is a lounge chair inspired by the capability of steel to create strong, functional objects that appear weightless. The continuous steel form that makes up the seat and armrest boldly draws the eye. The thin wire frame legs give the chair a floating appearance mimicking a mirage in the desert. The unconventional mounting points of the legs distort the traditional chair silhouette and create a visual effect in which chair components can appear stretched or compressed depending on the viewing angle. The green cushions visually unify the chair while adding comfort. Strata showcases the power of steel to create striking forms that defy expectations.
