Shadowy Armchair
The Moroso Shadowy Armchair by Tord Boontje rises into a tall, curled back above a generously woven seat and looping arms.
Artisans in Dakar, Senegal, weave colored polyethylene cord around a painted steel frame. Part of M’Afrique, the chair reinterprets early seaside seating through bold patterns, with PVC glides beneath the sculptural form.
