Primea Lounge Chair

The chair that holds you in boucle. And wraps you in cognac.
There are lounge chairs that comfort and there are lounge chairs that envelop — that wrap around the body with such considered material luxury that the act of sitting down becomes the most deliberate thing you do all day. The Primea was designed to envelop. A generous barrel form where off-white boucle lines the interior — vertically channelled on the backrest, smooth and generous on the cylindrical seat — and warm cognac leatherite wraps the entire outer shell in a deeply diamond-tufted surface that gives the chair its most extraordinary detail. The tufting is not incidental — it is the design, the handcraft reference that transforms the outer shell from an upholstered surface into a quilted object of considered luxury. A matt black circular pedestal base grounds the entire piece with the quiet authority of a material chosen to make the warmth above more luminous.
Off-white boucle and cognac leatherite find their balance in a chair where the contrast between the two — warm cream within, warm cognac without — makes each material more beautiful for what surrounds it. The vertical channelling of the boucle interior and the diamond tufting of the cognac exterior speak to two different craft traditions meeting in one resolved piece — the channel stitching of contemporary upholstery and the tufting heritage of the most considered furniture making. A lounge chair designed in India, for the home that understands the most considered seats are always the ones that carry a craft story in every stitch.
