The result of the latest collaboration between Fritz Hansen and Jaime Hayon, the JH97chair strikes the perfect balance between past and future, making lounging a new art form.<\/strong>

Applying classical craftsmanship techniques to modern innovation design, Fritz Hansen\u2019s JH97 is a contradiction in terms: classic yet modern, bold yet simple, light yet solid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe wanted to create a modern lounge chair that was light and sculptural in its expression; fusing Fritz Hansen\u2019s expertise with Jaime Hayon\u2019s sculptural design language<\/em>,\u201d explains Christian Andresen<\/a>, Head of Design at Fritz Hansen. The apex of a lounge chair, the new iteration takes its inspiration from nature: Inspired by the pelican, shaped for flight with long, broad wings, a gently curved body and a distinctive bill, the JH97 conveys a similar lightness that belies its strength. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe idea was to create a \u201ctypical\u201d Danish lounge chair, expressive and modern. Comfort was a key factor, as was the combination of the best of Danish design tradition and modern technology,<\/em>\u201d notes Jaime Hayon<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perfectly proportioned with a solid oak frame \u2013 available in natural oak, stained oak and black ash \u2013 the open, low-slung silhouette has a contemporary feel despite its classic roots. Elegant from every angle, the decorative joints with gently rounded edges are assembled by hand in a nod to Danish heritage designs and craftsmanship tradition. Exaggerated armrests \u2013 wide and flat \u2013 embrace and support the body, as does the curved backrest, angled in an upright position for comfort when sitting for prolonged periods of time. Enhancing the laid-back feel, generously sized cushions are upholstered with detachable covers in textile or leather, allowing you to easily change the expression. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
