Embrace the bold character of the 1970s with these stunning rustic modernist solid oak lounge chairs by Dittmann & Co for AWA Radboud, hailing from the Netherlands. These armless lounge chairs are substantial in presence, crafted entirely from dark-stained oak wood, and designed with the tenets of Brutalism in mind—where function meets form in the most dramatic fashion.

Each chair is a visual symphony of curves and lines, featuring a sculptural slatted seat and back that create an arresting visual display while ensuring comfort. The seats are curved and rounded, inviting you to sink into their embrace, while the slatted design promotes an ergonomic seating experience. The backs, similarly designed, are pitched perfectly to support a relaxed posture, making these chairs not only striking in appearance but also a haven for comfort.

The robust oak construction promises durability and stability, with braced leg stretchers that add to the solidity of the design. Their formidable silhouette is softened by the warm hue of the wood, allowing these chairs to stand as both a rustic statement and a modern design piece, ideal for enhancing the ambiance of a contemporary cabin or lakeside retreat.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of Pierre Chapo and Guillerme et Chambron, these chairs echo the organic yet deliberate style of these masters, offering a timeless aesthetic that is as much about artistry as it is about utility.

Each chair measures 31.5 inches in height, 24 inches in width, and 29.5 inches in depth, with a seat height of 14.5 inches at the front, providing a low profile that enhances the laid-back atmosphere of any room. The preservation of the original paper label on one chair adds a touch of historical integrity and serves as a hallmark of authenticity.

For those who wish to create a cohesive seating arrangement, four chairs are currently available, allowing the opportunity to curate a gathering space for four, perfect for communal seating in an intimate setting where conversation and style flow in equal measure.
