Linna Armchair

The Linna Armchair is a 2009 design by the Brazilian designer Jader Almeida, still in production and sold by region: a solid wood frame, the floating back shell a natural wood veneer, the seat upholstered in fabric or leather. It is shown in walnut with a black leather seat, and his catalogue sells it today as the Linna Lounge Chair.

In 2010 it took a silver IDEA award from the Industrial Designers Society of America, filed under home and living. Almeida calls the design a revisiting of period elements, its best definition, in his words, timelessness.
