Massproductions created an upholstery-free [lounge chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plane-lounge-chair) made from laminated wood. Dubbed the 4PM Chaise Longue, consumers can choose between two types of laminated wood, including a warm-toned Douglas fir and a darker merlot cherry wood.

The 4PM combines curves and flat elements to optimize its comfort despite the lack of upholstery. Its profile tapers towards the footrest when perceived from above. Its sloping design enables the feet to fall comfortably on both sides, making it easy for users to climb in and out of the lounger. In addition, the Chaise Longue's raised footrest can double as a side table or as a second seat. The chair is complete with an [adjustable headrest](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/johannes-faurebrac) for users of all heights.
