The 'Ipanema' lounge chair has been created by Lithuania-based designer Agota Rimsaite as an outdoors furniture solution for those looking to enjoy pleasant weather, while staying protected from the sun. The chair features an ultra-modern design aesthetic that's sculptural yet comfortable and features a built-in sun shade that will offer just the right level of sun shielding thanks to a perforated surface. The chair recreates the feeling of sitting under a palm tree where small amounts of sunlight will stream through the leaves.
The 'Ipanema' lounge chair has a curvaceous design that will accommodate the natural, ergonomic shape of the body to make it suited for all-day comfort when spending extended periods of time outdoors.
