Dalara hazel lounge chair

The Dalara Hazel armchair belongs to this category of furniture that we recognize immediately without being able to situate them precisely in time. Its integrated armrests which form a continuous arc around the seat, its structure in dark brown solid beech with these four feet slightly flared: the silhouette evokes the great club armchairs of the 50s, but the hazel fabric brings it back resolutely in the contemporary. This tissue: a brown, rust, burgundy and cream wire loop, with this dense and slightly irregular texture that captures light differently depending on the angle. 73 cm wide for 69 cm deep and 67.5 cm high, 15.5 kg, handmade on solid beech structure. A high-end lounge chair that plays on the tension between the nobility of its barrel shape and the organic heat of its fabric, and which pulls from this tension a visual personality immediately recognizable in an interior space.

A design that immediately attracts the look

The barrel shape of the armrest folder is what immediately defines Dalara. This is not a flat folder, not a standard rounded folder: it is a volume that envelops the seat on three sides, with armrests that are born directly from the apparent joint folder, forming a continuous arc of the left to the end. Seen from the front, the seat is generous: 55 cm wide, 56.5 cm deep. Aside, the dark brown beech feet clearly read under the textile volume, with this flashing outward reminiscent of the Scandinavian chairs of the 60s. The Hazel fabric is the element that gives the chair its heat and its time. Curly wires mixed in brown tones, rust, burgundy and cream, woven together so as to create a surface that is never quite the same from one area to another. In direct light, rusty reflections dominate. In soft light, warm brown tones take over. It is this life in the subject that the Dalara Hazel does not look like any other market chair, even among those who have a comparable form.

Why choose this model for your interior?

• A barrel folder that really envelops: The continuous arc shape of the armrest folder is not simply aesthetic. It creates a side comfort area that straight files or simple rounded files can not offer. It is settled with the feeling of being contained in a defined space, which concretely changes the quality of the seat.
• A Hazel fabric with threads mingled, deep and living hue: The mixture of brown, rust, burgundy and cream of Hazel fabric produces a surface whose perceived hue changes in light and angle. This depth of color is impossible to obtain with a plain fabric of the same composition, and it gives the chair a textile character that is usually associated with upscale artisanal parts.
• A massive beech structure made by hand: The massive beech is the reference structure for quality chairs. Dense, homogeneous, resistant to deformation over time, it ensures that the chair will retain its shape and strength far beyond what a basic or low-end plywood structure can hold.
• 55 × 56.5 cm seat for real comfort: At these dimensions, with 44 cm seat height and armrests at 62 cm, the Dalara is a lounge chair in the strict sense: it is installed with the elbows laid, the shoulders relieved, in a relaxed position that does not require any effort. Maintenance.
• 15.5 kg for an effortless armchair: Because of this weight, it comes out of a room angle, repositions according to the needs of a reception, turns to light without help. A relative lightness that slice with the impression of strength that its shape visually gives.

In which room to install this chair?

The living room is its natural territory, but not the living room without point of view. The Dalara Hazel needs an interior that assumes deep hues and rich materials: a dark oak parquet or walnut, natural coating walls or painted green bottle, a woolen mat with deaf tones. In this environment, the Hazel fabric integrates with immediate heat, as if it had always been there. This works particularly well, it is to place it slightly about bias with respect to the sofa, not perfectly facing it: this light asymmetry of composition is more natural, more alive, and puts better in value the barrel shape of the folder from different angles of the room. Associated with a dark natural wood side table or brushed gold metal, it creates a reading or conversation corner that really has personality. In an adult room with generous volumes, placed in front of a window or in a clearing corner, it can also operate as rest or reading armchair, with a natural wool jethed on the armrest to complete the cozy register of the Hazel fabric.

An ideal choice for an affirmed decoration

The Dalara Hazel armchair is one of those pieces that look simple remotely and reveal their complexity by approaching. The barrel shape seems obvious until the precision it requires manufacturing. The Hazel fabric seems simply brown until the light reveals its sons rust, burgundy and cream. And the massive beech structure seems banal until it is realized that it will always be strong in fifteen years when the alternatives in agglomerate have started to play. This is precisely this hidden quality, this treatment in design that does not sell easily on a technical sheet, which justifies choosing an armchair like Dalara rather than a less expensive competitor in the similar form. The decoration affirmed, it is also that: to choose furniture that deserve to be careful, and deserve it for good reasons.
