Compact sofa Saarinen

contemporaryredbeige

A Womb Chair fit for two. We are very pleased to welcome the Womb Settee back to the Knoll line up. The design has been out of production, but never out of style. The double-wide design is the perfect modern refuge for the living room, bedroom or office. FEATURES Designed by Eero Saarinen in 1948, the fit-for-two settee was not part of the designer's famous trio—the Model 70 Womb Chair, Model 71 Executive Arm Chair and Model 72 Executive Armless Chair—but, rather, developed in anticipation of Saarinen’s first big architectural commission: The General Motors Technical Center in Warren, Michigan—a twenty-five-building complex that required furnishings for over 5,000 people. CONSTRUCTION Seat shell is foam-covered molded fiberglass. Base is steel rod with polished chrome or black paint. FINISHES Upholstered in a range of fabrics and leather. These products are available with foam that meets requirements for BS5852.
