Dezeen Showroom: created by designers LAB 15 for Danish brand Eilersen, the Havana lounge chair is a comfortable, exaggeratedly rounded seat informed by Cuban chairs of the Art Deco period.
Built of organic shapes, the Havana chair has a bulbous, pebble-like pouffe at its centre, which can be augmented with an optional backrest and single or double arms.
This flexibility gives the chair many possible expressions, which can be used alone or together and pair well with Eilersen’s sofas.
According to LAB 15 co-founder Kristian Sofus Hansen, the chair is a fusion of classic Danish design from the 1950s mixed with old Cuban chairs from the Art Deco period of the 1930s and 1940s.
“However, unlike the old ’50s chairs and Cuba chairs, our starting point was to create a lounge chair with a greater sense of ease and smaller volume density, which make it much more relevant in contemporary decor.”
The Havana chair is available upholstered in a wide range of solid-coloured, textured or patterned fabrics or in leather.
