The Ro Easy Chair is perfect for those looking to add a comfortable and classic touch to their homes without going too traditional. Modeled after the iconic wing back armchairs, the design has been modernized with sleeker lines and a more minimalist aesthetic.
Designed by prolific Spanish designer Jaime Hayon in collaboration with Republic of Fritz Hansen, the Ro Easy Chair ditches the leather for a more approachable fabric. Aside from traditional colors, it comes in soft and bright options including violet, yellow, sage-green and sand. The pastels really highlight the translation of its name, which means 'tranquility' in Danish.
Curvy and elegant, the Ro Easy Chair embraces the body to create a private space for relaxation.
