Haus Chair Walnut

Soft curves and straight lines create an effortless harmony of floating shapes. A gently curved seat floats effortlessly above an architectural frame. The solitary backrest is contained in its shape, but is still a fraction free. Thanks to the flat profiles of the Haus-Chair, it can be placed side by side, rotated a quarter turn and back to back with others of its kind. The Coventry Cathedral Chair, designed by Dick Russell, produced by his brother Gordon Russell, was one of the founders of this piece of furniture. While the designers pay tribute, we add a deconstructed perspective to the original iconic design.
