Product description
REI is a unified, rounded mass without armrests. The backrest rises from the seat as a single movement and a softly rounding top line, with no break between frame and seat. The form is finished on every side — as whole from behind as from the front.
The seat is deep and full, and its front edge rounds downward. The padding gives without losing its shape; seamless upholstery keeps the line of the chair intact, with no loose cushions. A low frame set directly on the floor holds the mass steady.
The absence of armrests leaves REI open on every side, so it settles freely in the middle of a space or as part of a looser whole. It asks for no wall behind it and no place in a corner — it is a form you can walk around.
