Lamino Armchairs - Classic Swedish Style

by Richard Guilfoyle

The simple, curved, elegant lines of the Lamino armchair are a marvel of Modern Swedish furniture design, intended to please the eye and to soothe the back. Yngve Ekström designed the chair in 1956 as part of the Modernist movement in furniture, and in 1999 it was named "The Best Swedish Furniture Design of the Century." It was given the I.M.M. Cologne Award for best design in 2003, against heated competition.

The stylish Lamino is available in gray, brown, white, sand, or basic black which blend perfectly with the natural colors of the oiled wood found in the arms and legs of the chair. With it's sheepskin covering and matched four legged ottoman, the Lamino adds a air of comfort and elegance to any room.

This chair is offered in several different woods, including oiled beech, cherry wood, walnut, oak, oak/teak, or oak. Also offered are options of lacquered wood in oak, cherry wood, or walnut. Last but not least, we also offer stained, black beech. The varied options that we are offering, makes this chair fit in with any decor, in any room of your home.

Such well finished seating deserves an immaculate and supple leather covering. For an extra outlay an additional fabric may be ordered from a selection including Tonus, Canyon, Tonica, Flora, Divina, and Hallingdal. The multitude of different combinations of coverings, woods and patterns are an attraction to any and every possible customer - they will be overcome with delight at creating the seating of their dreams.

The modern Swedish style, such as that evidenced by the Lamino chair, has become particularly popular in recent years. This style is characterized by pale woods and fabrics, straight lines and simple, clean curves, and wholesome, natural woods and fabrics. This style is useful to achieve a clean, simple, streamlined look in your interior spaces. Hardwood floors, sheer pale curtains, uncluttered spaces, and subtle golds and blues will truly highlight the look of the Lamino chair.

Whether you have chosen modern Swedish as your decor motif and are looking to add the perfect chair to your collection of modern Swedish furniture (möbler), or you are simply looking for an elegant centerpiece for your already existing decor, the Lamino chair is the perfect choice. You can check out various wood and fabric combinations at a store near you, or look online for some high-resolution photos.
