THONET stool • Programme 808 H
With the 808, the Munich design studio Formstelle has developed a lounge chair that combines maximum comfort with numerous options for customisation. The chair plays with the contrast between protective shell and openness. In its surroundings, it offers a place of retreat and calm. Its distinctive look results from a consistent reinterpretation of the classic wing chair – the upper back section is reminiscent of a protective collar. The shell embraces the seated person and conveys a sense of security. The second striking feature is the comfortable, wave-like upholstery. The inner side, with its loose cushion look, stands in an exciting contrast to the smooth outer shell. An intelligent adjustment mechanism also allows the user to individually adapt the chair. The compact lounge chair 809 is the "little brother" of the successful lounge chair 808 and serves as a retreat in smaller rooms as well as in a group, combined with the larger chair or the low side tables 1808 and 1809. For the 809 chair, a college board is optionally available as a work surface or writing pad. The programme is rounded off by a footstool. For an extra touch of comfort, a neck cushion can be added. An integrated counterweight allows flexible positioning, so that the seated person's head is ideally supported. Available in numerous covers – from fabric to leather – the cushion sets visual accents in contrasting colours or blends harmoniously into the embracing seat shell of the comfortable lounger.
The THONET 808 H stool completes the 808 programme as a footstool. It stands on a frame made of flat steel in a stainless steel look; flat steel in deep black RAL 9005 is available at an extra cost. The outer shell and inner cover are selected separately, in fabric or leather. Plastic glides are included, felt glides are available at an extra cost.
