Paul Frankl

The so-called 'D' Lounge Chair by Paul Frankl comes with rounded armrests that dynamically blend into the overall shape of the chair. The armrests, as well as the front is decorated with a black lacquered border. The backrest and seat is recently reupholstered with high quality fabric. Viennese Art Deco furniture Designer Frankl set out to form a decidedly American form aesthetic when arriving in the United States in 1914. His pioneering work inside biomorphic design and novel materials such as corc veneer is a unique characteristic, but US-designers Edward Wormley, Robsjohn-Gibbings and Paul McCobb share other important form qualities.
