The 'Cocoon' lounge chair is a piece of decor for the home that merges a number of different aesthetics from multiple different periods for a seat that can be easily integrated into any space.
The chair is the design work of Kevin Hviid and Martin Kechayas, and offers a semi-private place to relax and unwind either indoors or out, depending on preference. The perforated design of the shell allows light and air to easily pass through, while also obscuring vision from onlookers to let you relax in peace.
The 'Cocoon' lounge chair comes in a variety of color choices ranging from vibrant to muted and has a somewhat Bohemian feel that is ideal for modern homes or offices.
