Niemeyer II
Designed by Joana Santos Barbosa, the rounded forms of the Niemeyer II armchair are influenced by the modernist House of Canoas of Oscar Niemeyer. Having a refined design with architectural details, this armchair is minimal and yet a statement piece. The upholstery work is meticulous, with seams reduced to essential, in order to reproduce the backward movement of flat roof when seen from an aerial view. Upholstered in a special woven bouclé, this welcoming armchair receives people with a gentle embrace and feels the most comfortable place in the room.
Niemeyer II Armchair by Joana Santos Barbosa was identified as an outstanding illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Niemeyer II Armchair won the Golden A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2022. The A' Furniture Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design prize that rewards superior design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
