SALE OBJECT

Armchair 41 a.k.a. "Paimio".

DESIGN

Alvar Aalto, Finland 1932.

DESCRIPTION

Frame: Bent birch plywood, clear lacquered.

Seat: Bent birch plywood, black lacquer.

Originally designed for the Paimio Sanatorium in Turku, Finland, the chair is designed so that the patients could lean back slightly to open their chest and inhale the maximum amount of air. The openings in the back are for air circulation. These chairs were on the balcony of each room and patients would sit many hours in the chair each day and just inhale the fresh pine air. But, don't worry - luckily the comfort of this chair is now for everyone to enjoy. For more info please follow this link to the producers homepage: [www.artek.fi]
