The chaise longue is a piece of furniture with a versatile and fascinating character, a symbol of luxury furnishings and for spacious environments, capable of combining functionality and aesthetics.
Comfortable and spacious like a sofa, but for private and personal use like an armchair, in function, it is almost comparable to an extra room, a reserved corner in which to enjoy a moment of relaxation in everyday life and in the intimacy of your home.
“Chaise longue” in French literally means long chair, referring specifically to the elongated seat that allows a very comfortable lying position.
It has its origins in the ancient Greece of the philosophers, but it was also popular with the Roman people who used it for emperors and senators.
In the world of design, it has found new glory and new life with the concept by Le Corbusier, today the most famous chaise longue in the world and known under the name of LC4.

Soft Pad Chaise
Vitra
A director’s needs must always be met, especially if this is an old friend of two design giants like Charles and Ray Eames.
Thus was born the Soft Pad Chaise: six cushions hinged together and fixed to an aluminum frame initially intended to accommodate Billy Wilder’s moments of relaxation … and today fortunately ours too.
PK24
Fritz Hansen
A sequence of elements, base – seat – headrest, superimposed to create a “Zen” design that becomes a hymn to the lightness of relax.
Poul Kjærholm, the designer, has labeled it “hammock chair“, to underline its functioning through a body suspended between two points.
