Tenon Lounge Chair

Despite its small dimensions, the Tenon Lounge Chair boasts an expressive character – hard and soft, strong and graceful – as it cultivates contrasts between solid wood
and upholstered surfaces. In their purity, these opposing elements harmonise in a compelling coexistence that invites a small – and soft – pause.

A strong character for the small room; this is the essence of the Tenon Lounge Chair, designed by Spanish architect Omayra Maymó, which now becomes part of New Works’
collection of furniture, lighting, and objects. In a refined meeting of hard wood and upholstered surfaces, a small seat emerges that, despite its narrow dimensions, has a
particularly expressive character. The clean construction in solid oak, assembled with a so-called ‘mortise and tenon joint,’ creates a sculptural frame for the seat. The straight lines and robustness of the frame embrace a softer counterpoint of bouncy curves, like a shield protecting a soft core.

When these pure contrasts unite, a striking piece emerges, asserting its place in the interior. A small yet comfortable and characterful seating option for spaces of all sizes,
where it can stand alone or be grouped together to form a sofa bench. The Tenon Lounge Chair is available with a frame in oiled oak or oiled fumed oak, accompanied by a selection of curated textiles that together create an elegant place for a brief rest.

The Tembo Lounge Chair is made to order in your choice of textile, ranging from price category A to E.
