Lammhult, Sweden
Designed in a collaboration between Note Design Studio and Gunilla Allard for the new Sunny Lounge modular solution for Lammhults, the designers took inspiration from the Eames House in California – in particular the scale of the house, the details, the materials used and the form and architecture of this period, which they felt also shared the same design ethos and aesthetics as the Lammhults brand.
The fun, eclectic collection of items displayed in the Eames House also contributed to the inspiration – a mix of large and small, light and dense.
Created out of bent steel tubes and supporting fabric, the easy chair has a light airy construction, alongside generously padded cushions that give an inviting, plush appearance and relaxing comfort – a modular comfortable seating solution that is full of personality.
The designer’s comment: “The task was to make soft, lounge seating – a little lower, a little softer, a little more relaxed, a little cooler, a little dreamier and a cross-border between public and private.”
The frame comes in powder coated or chromium-plated finish.
The cushion can be upholstered in almost any fabric but designed to ideally be in one uniform color.
The back and underside of the seat shell is made of black canvas or natural linen and supports the cushion.
The cushion is filled with 50% cut residual polyether pieces and 50% RDS certified down feathers.
As with many other Lammhults products the choice of finish on the frame and choice of fabric/ leather on Sunny can either result in a monochrome more sophisticated look or in a cheerful, ‘sunny’ and colorful piece of furniture.
Like many other Lammhults products, Sunny is resource-efficient and uses minimal material.
The designers have worked with bent steel tubes and a detailed upholstery, both of which are typical of Lammhults ́ identity and craftsmanship.
The designers also looked to minimize the use of resources by creating Sunny, without sacrificing comfort – another key component of Lammhults’ ethos – using resource-efficient, separate and replaceable parts.
