Lotos Chair | redberry

Design that came into bloom again.

When first designed in 1980 by Romuald Ferens in Poland, the LOTOS chair was submitted for competition at the Basel Furniture Fair in Switzerland. The design won the main prize and was recognized as a functional and modern seating solution. The judging panel was fascinated by the shape and innovative function, which reminded people of the blooming lotus flower...

However, the chair has never been manufactured continuously, as the martial law was introduced in communist Poland in 1981 and the economy collapsed, therefore nobody was really interested in making this unique design alive.
For the first time ever, LOTOS will be produced continuously in 2017 thanks to POLITURA.
