Curve Lounge

Allermuir // 2025

Curve is a modern interpretation of a classic lounge chair. The core focus of Curve — and the inspiration for its name — is its sculptured, enveloping arm that cradles the body, sat atop four chunky legs, anchoring Curve’s oversized yet inviting presence. The result is a timeless piece of design that will blend between corporate and hospitality.

Drawing inspiration from the works of Henry Moore and Agustín Cárdenas, absorbed during a visit to the Hakone Open-Air Museum in Japan, Curve strikes a balance between sculpture and functionality, bringing character to any space.

The brief was to design an oversized, distinctive armchair. While Curve has some deliberately awkward elements, these are balanced by details like the elegance of the timber grain on the backrest, which subtly guides and welcomes you into the seat.
