Lyra Lounge Chair
Lyra captures the feeling of sinking into softness, where generous cushions meet a structure that gently holds the body.
About
The feeling of throwing yourself down into a pile of cushions — that is the ambition behind the Lyra Lounge Chair from Fogia and designer Andreas Engesvik. A pursuit of comfort without compromise. At the same time, the piece is defined by precise design, beautiful materials, and excellent craftsmanship. The Lyra Lounge Chair likely has everything required to become the favourite seat in the home. Pair it with the Lyra Ottoman to further enhance comfort. Lyra Lounge Chair clearly demonstrates that there is no conflict between aesthetics and comfort. Here, designer Andreas Engesvik together with Fogia’s craftspeople has created an armchair you both long to sink into and enjoy furnishing with. Much of this comes from the contrast between its soft, undulating forms and sharply defined legs.

The designer / Andreas Engesvik
A designer is someone who looks at the world of objects with curiosity, seeking to understand how things work, while also noticing what is missing and what could be improved. This curiosity is clearly seen in Andreas Engesvik’s work. He explores new ways of approaching materials and making use of their properties – always with a strong focus on what it is like to use and live with the furniture he creates. Take Bollo, for example – a bold piece of furniture, certainly, yet at the same time a pleasure to sit in. A little like a slightly eccentric outfit that fits perfectly, making you feel both comfortable and special at once.
