Gentle and elegant shapes, as well as marked comfort, distinguish the Louis modern armchairs, designed and crafted by Patrik Jouin.
The inspiration comes from the intersection between of the American and the Japanese traditions, based on the use of solid wood furniture items. The frame of these design armchairs is entirely made of solid Canaletta walnut, which emphasises the beauty of the grain of the wood, giving a more organic style to these living room armchairs. The seat with different density padding foam guarantees an extreme comfort and ergonomics. The soft and minimalist lines characterise this seat that can easily fit with all the other elements of the living area, while the low and wide structure through its enveloping seat, guarantees a peerless sense of relaxation.
