A Lounge Chair

A Lounge Chair

The Project

A lounge chair is often a luxury piece of furniture because of the amount of space it takes up in a room. For this reason, Althea Fyfe and I set out to create a lounge chair that can fold up and be stored easily when not in use. We developed this product as a design opportunity for HAY, a Denmark design firm.
