Lamino Armchairs And Modern Swedish Decor

by Richard Guilfoyle

The Lamino chair was designed in 1956 by Yngve Ekstrom, a prominent Modernist furniture designer (mobler formgivare). It is an excellent example of this style with its simplicity and trademark curves and elegance, so much so that it was named "The Best Swedish Furniture Design of the Century" in 1999 and also won the I.M.M Cologne Award for best design in 2003.

The Lamino is a beautiful wooden chair and ottoman set that is adorned with the softest sheepskin available in a myriad of colors (grey, brown, white, sand, or black). The wooden arms and legs of the chairs are beautifully oiled. This set provides the utmost comfort with a touch of elegance.

Several different woods are available to select from. These include oiled beech, cherry, walnut, oak, oak/teak, or oak. Other options include lacquered wood in oak, cherry, or walnut. Finally, the chair may be ordered in stained black beech. The many options offered make this chair a match for the decor in any room of your home.

You may also select a gorgeous, supple leather covering for an extra fee - well worth it for such high quality leather seating. Additional fabrics can be ordered, including Tonus, Canyon, Tonica, Flora, Divina, and Hallingdal. The vast array of options in coverings, woods, and patterns will be appreciated by all potential buyers, who can mix and match coverings and woods to their heart's content.

The Swedish modern style that is shown by the Lamino chair has been growingly popular recently. This style is shown by pale woods and cloths, elegant and simple lines and curves and emphasis on woods and fabrics. This kind of style can bring a simple and clean look into your spaces. Hardwood flooring, pale curtains, and organized spaces with a few touches of golds and blues will highlight the look of the Lamino chair.

Whether you have chosen modern Swedish as your decor motif and are looking to add the perfect chair to your collection of modern Swedish furniture (mobler), or you are simply looking for an elegant centerpiece for your already existing decor, the Lamino chair is the perfect choice. You can check out various wood and fabric combinations at a store near you, or look online for some high-resolution photos.
