# Tubular Lounge Furniture The JS. THONET Collection Expands with S 411 and S 1070 By Amy Duong | Published 2026-08-06 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/js-thonet References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2026/8/jil-sander-thonet-furniture-collection-expansions-21070-tables-s411-lounge-chairs-info)  JS. THONET collection introduces new interpretations of the S 411 lounge chair and S 1070 table through the ongoing collaboration between Jil Sander and Thonet. Drawing on [Bauhaus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knoll-1) principles and Marcel Breuer's [tubular steel furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stitch-chair), the expansion combines polished metal frames with leather upholstery and refined material finishes. Each piece is engraved with a "JS. THONET" signature on the steel frame and is offered in two coordinated design lines, SERIOUS and [NORDIC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nordic-dluxx-pro), which present contrasting material and color palettes. Originally introduced in 1932, the S 411 lounge chair retains its sculptural S-shaped tubular steel frame while adding fully leather-wrapped sprung upholstery, minimal seam detailing, and a matching S 411 H footstool. The S 1070 table reinterprets Glen Oliver Löw's 2004 design with a 220-by-100-centimeter tabletop divided lengthwise to allow mixed surface finishes. SERIOUS pairs smoked glossy titanium frames with graphite-toned leather in black, ruby red, green, or blue, while NORDIC combines matte nickel silver frames, white-pigmented oak, and lighter leather finishes including burnt walnut and alabaster white.
