Archetyp Lounge is a functional, simple and straightforward lounge chair. The dimensions and shapes give an idea of a chair pared to the bare minimum with subtle refinement. The upholstered seat and back give good support for long-term seating. Archetyp is totally new, and at the same time familiar to the eye.
“In updating this well-known archetype of upholstered armchair with wooden frame, we’ve tried to lighten the structure and give it the appearance of something both familiar and simultaneously fresh and of its time. Nikari’s reputation for faultless craftsmanship allows the design to transcend ordinary everyday character, giving the design the edge it needs to perform in well-thought architectural surroundings.” — Jasper Morrison, 2024
