Northern Oblong Lounge Chair
OBLONG LOUNGE CHAIR
OBLONG LOUNGE CHAIR
Designed by Mario Tsai
The relaxing contours of the Oblong lounge chair provide the supersize comfort of a recliner, while being lighter and more comfortable than an overstuffed seat.
Both the seat and backrest slope gently backwards, making Oblong relaxingto recline in. Crafted from two padded discs attached to a minimalistic frame, the chair’s fluid form and geometric profile recall shapes more typical of contemporary art than furniture design.
Oblong was designed with an open base that allows light to pass through, enabling this low-slung chair to fill a small space without appearing to crowd it. Although lightweight and comfortable, the chair’s frame forms a stable base that keeps the feet firmly in place.
DESIGNER
MARIO TSAI
Mario is based in Hangzhou, China, but his work is global in appeal.
Mario has collaborated with local manufacturers in China, Italy and Denmark, and now joins forces with Northern to engage a wider international market.
Mario is pioneering a new approach to interior design that he describes as ‘soft minimalism’.
By that, Mario means that furniture can be streamlined and understated, while also soft to the touch and tactile in appearance.
The stunning lounge chair and sofa he designed for Northern is all of those things, and more.
Mario is currently exploring ways to make design more inclusive, and finding new applications for materials that respect the environment and appeal to society as a whole.
