Reprise Chair with Hide Seat

Product Description

Brimming with elevated architectural references, the REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT is an effortlessly graceful seating solution with a refined, subtle presence. Launched in 2020, the chair is a collaborative effort between L.Ercolani and Norm Architects. Imbued with a signature pared-back aesthetic and honest approach to materiality, the REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT reflects the soft, haptic minimalism that Norm Architects have become known for. The REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT’s distinctive, reclined profile was loosely inspired by Danish design from the 1950’s, combining the classic allure of authentic Scandinavian design with the utilitarian principles of form and functionality.

Drawing on L.Ercolani’s extensive legacy as craftsmen and purveyors of fine design — the REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT features Lucian Ercolani’s traditional woodturning and steam-bending techniques. With roots dating back to 1944, the chair’s seamless silhouette is achieved by steam-bending a single piece of timber to create a sinuous, uninterpreted line that stretches all the way around the backrest. Secured by the chair’s legs, the timber bow makes for a cohesive, well-constructed build, free from any distractions and unnecessary elements.

The subtle, ergonomic curvature of the REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT offers a comfortable and stylish retreat from daily life. A series of finely-carved spindles make for a supportive and streamlined backrest, gently slanted to allow for leisurely reclining. With the option of adding a REPRISE BACK CUSHION for a further element of comfort. The REPRISE BACK CUSHION is fastened with two press studs wrapping around the spindles of the backrest. Lastly, a durable hide seat adds a timeless, tactile dimension to the REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT, paying homage to classic mid-century design.

Offered in both solid ash and walnut timber, the REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT is a soothing addition to the contemporary collector’s home. The REPRISE CHAIR WITH HIDE SEAT in ash features a brandy-coloured hide seat while the walnut variation includes either a classic black or dark brown hide seat.

The ash variation is also available in a selection of bespoke finishes, including a soothing natural finish and the new MODERN TONES series by Christian Møller Andersen.
