New Arrivals: 23 Reasons to Sit Down

The name says something true about the intention. Chill is a swivel armchair that resists the urge to impress – it simply settles, and in doing so, earns a kind of quiet authority. The proportions are generous without being oversized, and the swivel base adds a small but meaningful freedom: the ability to reorient yourself within a room without disrupting it. Available in Better 122 and Milan 355, the two upholstery options sit at opposite ends of the tonal register – one muted and grounded, the other carrying a cooler, more urban quality – but both share the same unhurried silhouette.

Where Chill chooses understatement, Cozy Wave offers something more enveloping. The form has a softness to it – a slight undulation in the profile that gives the chair its name and distinguishes it from the more upright, architectural pieces in the collection. In Coco 112 and Lola 455, the upholstery reinforces this mood: warm, tactile, the kind of fabric that catches afternoon light and holds it. This is a chair for slower moments – a bedroom corner, a reading alcove, a spot beside a window where you intend to stay.

Lennon has a broader cultural register than most armchairs dare to claim. There is something deliberately relaxed about its geometry – a slouch built into the structure itself rather than achieved through wear. The swivel mechanism feels particularly well-matched here: this is a chair that wants to be turned towards conversation, towards the room, towards whatever is happening. Berlin 102 gives it a cooler, almost monochromatic quality; Eva Color 441 introduces a warmer note that softens the overall impression. Either way, Lennon is the kind of piece that photographs well but lives even better.

The most formally resolved of the swivel armchairs, Sphere takes its geometry seriously. At 91 cm wide with a relatively low seat height of 33 cm, it sits close to the ground with a confidence that feels almost lounge-like – more relaxed than its composed silhouette initially suggests. The Eyelash 103 upholstery is the more distinctive choice: a textured fabric with a finely layered surface that catches light differently depending on angle, lending the chair a softness that contrasts quietly with the clarity of its form. Coco 431 offers a more restrained alternative for interiors where the architecture is doing the talking.

The swivel dining chair is a rarer proposition than it perhaps should be, and Zen makes the case for it convincingly. At the table, the ability to pivot slightly – to turn towards a neighbouring guest, to reach without effort – is a small luxury that becomes, over the course of a long dinner, a significant one. The form itself is composed and upright without being rigid, offering the kind of back support that encourages you to linger rather than leave. Available in Better 122 and H25310 4A, Zen works equally well in a dedicated dining room and in the kind of open-plan space where the boundary between eating and living is pleasingly blurred.

Aura is perhaps the most considered pairing in the new collection: a compact swivel armchair – 69 cm wide, with a low 30 cm seat height – accompanied by a matching pouf that extends the experience without complicating it. Together, they form a small self-contained landscape within a room, a place to settle properly rather than perch. In Coco 350, the combination has a soft, tonal coherence; in Teddy 33, the boucle-like upholstery introduces a layer of tactile warmth that makes the chair and pouf feel almost inseparable. The Aura pouf works independently, of course, but placed in front of the armchair, it clarifies the design's intention: comfort taken seriously.

Noble earns its name through restraint. This is a dining chair that does not announce itself – it simply belongs, wherever it is placed. The three upholstery options span a considered range: Cloud 113 brings an almost airy lightness; Field 130 introduces an earthier, more textural quality; CQ5026 10 sits between the two, grounded and neutral. What they share is an ability to disappear into a well-appointed dining room or to become its focal point, depending on the surrounding context. The silhouette is resolved enough to stand alone, versatile enough to work in numbers.

Prime is built around a single conviction: that a dining chair should support not just the body but the act of being at the table. The back height and seat depth are proportioned for longer occupation – the kind of chair you pull in for a meal and remain in for the conversation that follows. Harmony 274 gives the chair a soft, almost muffled quality; Judy 110 and Judy 353, both interpretations of the same fabric in different tonal registers, introduce a slightly more graphic presence. The name is less aspiration than description: Prime is, simply, a very good dining chair.

The final piece in the collection closes on exactly the right note. Serenity is a dining chair with an unusual quality of stillness – the kind of form that you stop noticing after a few days, not because it has disappeared, but because it has become part of the room. In Coco 112 and Coco 350, the fabric shifts the chair's mood between warmer and cooler without altering its essential character; CQ5026 4 offers a more textured alternative for interiors that benefit from a little more surface interest at the table. Serenity does not compete. It simply sits, and in doing so, completes.
