Concetto
The armchair with its warm minimalism continues the factual language of the horgenglarus collection into the 21st century. The bold sweeps of backrest and rear legs give distinction to its geometry. Thanks to a variety of seat widths, depths and heights as well as materials, the lounge is suited for a wide range of purposes and architectural styles. A staff canteen needs a different type of armchair than a café, bistro, or fine-dining restaurant. A council chamber or boardroom makes other demands than a hotel room or a private dining room. Larger hotels, restaurants, or administrative offices often combine more than one usage type in one building. lounge's end-to-end design line offers a large variety of functions. The seat's comfort level varies from cushion to very comfortable belt upholstery.
lounge has character and identity. The warm and natural appeal of its wood makes lounge a beautiful contrast to modern corporate architecture. In traditional buildings, its wood links to the building's history whereas its streamlined shape references the present. lounge embodies the core competency of horgenglarus' unique wood-bending techniques and impresses with its inherent solidity.
In 2008, lounge was showcased on the Swiss Designers’ Saturday with an installation made from rustling leafs. lounge is one of the last designs by Hannes Wettstein.

Hannes Wettstein
Switzerland
Hannes Wettstein (1958-2008) Hannes Wettstein was one of the most influential Swiss designers. Even his career path corresponded to someone who didn’t go by the rule book: Wettstein, born in 1958 in Ascona, first completed studies in building draughtsmanship; his further training as designer and architect was autodidactic. He was as fascinated by technological developments as he was by art history and architecture and his manner of developing ideas always had a touch of alchemy or invention. He continually questioned norms, be they societal, industrial, cultural or ritual, in order to be able to reinvent, explained Wettstein. This comprehensiveness was not an attitude but a method. His openness to continually re-thinking all that defines design – daily routines, spatial organisation and the purposes of things – led him to surprisingly simple solutions that stand the test of time. Hannes Wettstein designed functional objects with such elegance and perfection that they took on their own identities, something that momentary fashions can never achieve. In spatial design he also created architypes: site-specific and sensitive overall solutions, interior designs or set designs.
