Talma Lounge Chair

Italian brand Moros in collaboration with London-based designer Benjamin Hubert design the new 'Talma' lounge chair. The chair looks as if it has been wrapped in a padded textile, similar to how a cloak would wrap a body. Hidden under the wrap is a lightweight metal frame that follows the studio’s MO which was to reduce material, weight, and cost during the traditional construction of upholstered chairs. Using a CNC-shaped steel framework, upholstery straps are then integrated for support. By using this type of frame covered with the padded cover, they were able to use minimal polyurethane foam, therefore reducing the chair’s carbon footprint.
