Know before you buy
The Reader's high, curved back and sides act as a physical barrier that helps dampen ambient room noise. By creating a semi-enclosed cocoon, it minimizes distractions, making it an ideal spot for reading or focused relaxation.
The upholstery is designed to be easily replaceable. You can update the look of the chair without needing to purchase an entirely new piece of furniture, which supports the chair's long-term sustainability.
The chair is available in natural Oak, Dark Oak, and Black Oak. The natural Oak offers a light, Scandinavian aesthetic, while the Dark and Black Oak options provide a moodier, more contemporary contrast to the fabric.
With dimensions of 91 x 78 x 105 cm, The Reader has a relatively compact footprint despite its high-back design. Its light, open form prevents it from feeling visually heavy, making it a good fit for apartments or cozy reading nooks.
The frame is crafted from a combination of solid oak and laminated veneer. This construction ensures structural integrity while maintaining the chair's signature organic, curved silhouette.
