Lepper Schmidt Sommerlade S 850 Chair
Thonet has developed a chair as an addition to its successful S 840
chair programme that, thanks to its generous dimensions, is an elegant
and comfortable place to relax, and ideal for the home or for contract
use. A stool, specially designed to match the shape of the chair, adds
to the comfort. The key feature of the entire programme is the
perfectly balanced interplay between supporting lines and the
surrounding surfaces. It exudes a warm, lively appeal that is further
enhanced by Thonet's typical use of elegant wood in association with
metal and high quality cover fabrics as the materials.
Thanks to the
characteristic seat shell and beautifully shaped steel tube frame, the
chair develops a unique and very special effect. The premium aesthetics
of the programme exist in the accentuated constructive separation of
the frame and seat shell. The moulded wood seat shell exhibits formal
analogies to automobile design in the surface blanking, where this
process is used in chassis production - transferred, however, to the
material wood at Thonet. The result is a clear, elegant silhouette. The
seat element consists of moulded plywood; through the use of different
exotic wood veneers and coverings, the character of the programme can
be varied and adjusted to any furnishing environment. The frames are
available in high-quality chrome plated tubular steel.
