Paul Smith brings together fashion and interior design with sartorial savoir faire in this outdoor lounge chair. Everyday Life Narrow Armchair Outdoor belongs to a series of outdoor armchairs that are perfect for the balcony or the garden, and which take the same lines as EVERYDAY LIFE’s indoor catalogue outside; the same contours with fabrics and materials suitable for living in outdoor spaces with quality and elegance. The frame of these outdoor lounge chairs is made of fine Iroko wood, while the upholstery is embellished with unexpected details like simple contrast stitching in primary tones that references Paul Smith’s fashion heritage, such as the leather straps along the backrest, and the exposed joints recalling the Japanese cabinet-making tradition much admired by the designer. The eye is captivated by the skilful use of colour that expertly ranges from classic to vibrant with sophisticated ease, in a carefully considered palette of earthy tones and new shades, together with sustainable materials of natural origin such as hemp, kapok and recycled feathers.
