The Story Behind

The 300-190 Lounge Chair, designed by Henryk Lis in the 1960s, is one of the more famous designs of its era. “Lisek” could be found in almost every cafe or club. It is the second most popular piece of furniture of those years in Poland, after the 366 Armchair.

With its wide, comfortable seat and simple Scandinavian form, the Fox Lounge Chair will prove itself today as a representative piece of furniture in the living room, study or, as in the past, in a club café. The Fox lounge chair is made of highest-quality ash wood and finished with brass details.

IN DETAIL

Fabric: BOUCLE

BOUCLE fabric is a material woven from yarns with an irregular structure, with knotty lugs that can create a cozy atmosphere. In this irregularity lies all the charm of boucle fabric – its surface is so warm and pleasant to the touch. It is coated with molecules and a hydrophobic coating that protects fabric from dirt and absorption of liquids.

IN DETAIL

Wood: ASH

Ash is a noble wood with special properties. It is used especially when elasticity and strength are required. Ash is also valued due to its structure that is characterized by a marbled pattern. It can also be recognized by its clearly visible annual rings that indicate the highest quality of the wood.

Henryk Lis: Design for All

Henryk Lis created an armchair that almost immediately captured the hearts of consumers and took Polish homes by storm. The Fox Lounge Chair, designed by a graduate of the Interior Design Department of the Wroclaw State Higher School of Fine Arts, brought a new perspective on home furnishings to Polish industrial design.

His creations were often modernist furniture, with simple geometric shapes and brighter colors. Their style was influenced by European modernist design movements such as Scandinavian style.
