If you are a nature lover and a forward-thinking design enthusiast, you'll love this award-wining unique chaise lounge design that would look awesome absolutely anywhere you decide to place it.
The 'Pratone' chaise lounge by Gufram may look comfy and the perfect place to laze around but it is actually the opposite. Designed to look like a sculptural piece of art, the unique chaise lounge is modern-looking and uses polyurethane foam to create the over-sized grass that makes up the 'Pratone' chair. The unconventional seating design was created this way to challenge traditional design values and push those who are afraid of change to open their eyes to ground-breaking design. The juxtaposition of using man-made materials to create something from nature is aesthetically brilliant and sends an ironic message.
