Lounge chair model 975 by Geoffrey Harcourt for Artifort, 1960

The lounge chair 975 is one of the creations that defined Geoffrey Harcourt's style for Artifort. Designed to accommodate a relaxed posture rather than impose one, it results from extensive research on ergonomics and the interaction between the body and the seat, themes that made the British designer one of the protagonists of European design in the 1960s. The fiberglass shell envelops the padding with a continuous and embracing shape, characterized by soft curves and compact proportions. The tilt of the backrest and the depth of the seat promote a natural position, making the chair ideal for reading or relaxation. It is a design where comfort emerges from the form itself, without the need for decorative elements. This piece has been fully restored and reupholstered in "Vladimiro" mohair from Dedar, a fabric that highlights the volume of the seat thanks to its rich surface and the particular depth of the blue color. The new cover interacts with the original silhouette without altering its identity, giving the chair a refined and perfectly contemporary look. Produced by Artifort in the Netherlands in the 1960s, the 975 represents one of the most significant models in the company's production. A piece that combines technical innovation, ergonomic research, and quality craftsmanship, capable of integrating naturally into both design collections and contemporary interiors.
