Between a side chair and an arm chair.

The Almost Arm Chair is a comfortable, durable, eloquent, timeless chair that is in between a formal arm chair and informal side chair. In a formal setting, the sculpted back maintains a commanding presence. In an informal setting, the carved shoulder of the chair embraces an arm nonchalantly thrown over its side.

Every detail is designed to have an inviting “hand”. In furniture design the “hand” of the piece refers to how it feels as it is touched. The chair’s carved shoulder and sculpted underside of its saddle are meant to be touched. The unique shoulder geometry that connects the hind legs to the back of the chair are shaped to subtly hug you. The rear side of the chair’s back has been given special attention so it presents itself as visually stimulating. After-all, its the back of a chair that you typically see most of in a space.

The overall form of the chair balances fluid, sensual, curves with defined rectilinear lines and creases. This combination makes the chair a versatile and desirable compliment or foil to a wide range of interior design styles and moods.
