With its highly distinct, near-space age design, the Karuselli Lounge Chair certainly stands alone and is one of the most impressive pieces of mid-century European design. First produced in 1964, Kukkapuro’s chair features a high degree of manoeuvrability, with both swivel and swing functions, while the matching ottoman offers an unparalleled sense of comfort.
Also available as a standalone chair, the Karuselli is upholstered in premium Sorensen leather and can be found in the permanent collections of both the New York Museum Of Modern Art and London’s Design Museum.
Yrjo Kukkapuro's designs reflect an awareness of space and its function, be it the space of classical or modern buildings. Furniture has been designed by making it complement the architecture of the building, by making it assimilate with the space without dominating it.
