The Stefan Lounge Chair was designed as the Type 300-139 chair in the early 1960s as an attempt to create Poland’s luxury export seater. The piece features a simple modernist form enriched by gently contoured armrests, reminiscent of Danish design classics.

Stefan in Today’s Design

In recent decades, the trend in design has been to make lounge chairs look chunky to suggest high comfort. And yet, history was made resting on sculptural lounge chairs that would be considered highly comfortable today. A lounge chair can be elegant, and an elegant seater, still highly embracing.

With its organic curves and openwork backrest frame rungs, the Stefan outshines today’s clunky seaters. But don’t let this first impression deceive you. The Stefan’s elegant versatility allows it to provide extreme comfort and fit in both modernist and contemporary interiors, making it a stellar everyday companion at home.

A Peer to Danish Modernism

A number of classic mid-century modern lounge chairs, each one an icon in its own right, may have served as the starting point for the Stefan's design when it was created in the early 1960s.

Despite drawing from Danish modernist heritage, the Stefan gives it a unique Polish spin and maintains its own design language. Its finely curved armrests are offset by a minimalistic and less dynamic frame. Similarly, exotic teak wood has been replaced with the classic and purely polish oak. As a result, the Stefan hits just the right balance between distinguished and understated and pays a tribute to a more elegant age while being far from boring.

Sixty Years Forward

While being a faithful reissue of its forebear, the contemporary Stefan brings a number of aesthetic and practical improvements. To please the eye, the organic curves of armrests have been enhanced further along with brass sliders added at the end of each leg.

The dimensions of the frame are now slightly adjusted to match the size of today’s people. Finally, the webbing belts are now more immune to overstretching, while the cushions got a rectangular shape and are now filled with superior high-density foam.

Finally, for its sixtieth birthday, the once-armchair got coupled with a two-seater declination, so that more than one person can enjoy Stefan’s embracing comfort at once.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR STEFAN

Knowing that comfort and elegance come in many colours and textures, we invite you to customize your Stefan. The armchair is available in four shades of oak: from natural and slightly darker shade, all the way to much darker brown and black variants. Hand-sewn cushions can be made in multiple textiles and leather.

Our favourite combos? Red upholstery in Braid Sierra fabric set on a dark frame feels like a ticket to Italy. Beige Coco Creme fabric paired with natural oak, on the other hand, is crying out for a glamorous penthouse somewhere in Manhattan. Finally, olive and blue boucle fabrics are most reminiscent of Danish and, dare we say, Polish mid-century interiors with exootic wood wall panels and dimmed lights. To discover more possibilities, just order our fabric samples or ask online – we’ll be happy to help.
