VINTAGE MEMPHIS STYLE CHAISE LONGUE SETTEE, 1980s
This rare settee from the 1980s is an authentic example of iconic Memphis design – bold, playful, and colorful, with strong geometric forms and an expressive color composition. The construction features a solid pinewood frame and elastic spring support, offering a high level of seating comfort. The piece stands on two broad, sculptural legs that provide a stable base and emphasize its distinctive silhouette. The cushions are upholstered in fabrics in mint green, orange, beige, rose, petrol blue, and light brown – a charmingly eccentric mix of tones typical of the Memphis movement. Each color is deliberately placed, contributing to the settee’s playful, dynamic appearance. The design language is defined by clean lines, contrasting materials, and a striking graphic quality. This settee is more than just a seating piece – it’s a true design statement, uniting style with a sense of irony and wit.
A genuine collector’s item for enthusiasts of postmodern design – and a standout feature in any interior that values individuality and creative expression.Designer
