Lamino Armchairs And Modern Swedish Decor

by Richard Guilfoyle

The simple, curved, elegant lines of the Lamino Fotölj 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 Lamino Fotölj is a beautiful wooden chair and ottoman set that is adorned with the softest sheepskin available in a myriad of colors (grey, brown, white, sand, or black). The wooden arms and legs of the chairs are beautifully oiled. This set provides the utmost comfort with a touch of elegance.

There is a huge variety of wood from which to make your choice. Some of these choices include beech, oak, cheery wood, and teak. Also there are different choices in lacquered wood such as oak, walnut, and cherry wood. You can also choose stained, black beech. The large selections that are available will make this chair suitable for any home and also for any room in your home.

For an additional charge, you can pick a very nice, high quality leather cover for your seat. This upgrade is very well worth the additional cost. There are some other fabrics that can be special ordered. These include Tonus, Canyon, Tonica, Flora, Divina, and Hallingdal. The wide variety of options for covers, patterns and woods will be valued by buyers. The buyer gets to create their own custom option by mixing and matching the variety of options.

The Lamino chair is evidence that the Swedish style is gaining popularity over here. This style is easily recognizable by its pale wood and fabric shades, straight lines, and simple geometric curves and shapes. This style conveys a hip, contemporary, clean, streamlined look in any space. The Lamino Fotölj chair can best be showcased with Swedish styles utilized in hardwood floors, sheer pale curtains, minimalist spaces, and understated hints of gold and blue.

The Lamino Fotölj chair is the perfect choice to compliment your decor, regardless of whether you are looking for a chair to add to your modern Swedish furniture or an elegant center piece for your existing interior design. You can choose from any number of wood and fabric combinations available by visiting a store near you or accessing high-resolution photos at our on-line site.
