The iconic Bollo combines deep comfort with clean lines. Inspired by the distinct tubular frames of mid-century lounge chairs, its generous cushioning wraps and softens the metal frame. Bollo is a result of clever blending of comfort and economic use of material. Its spacious proportions mean it is a seat you can get properly comfortable in.
Bollo was initiated as a typical Scandinavian lounge chair with slim features and modest use of materials. The final result is a chair driven by comfort, both visually and in use. Bollo has a strong character inspired by its heightened level of comfort, with generously shaped cushions and a bold appearance. The soft volumes reach out to embrace the slim metal base, creating an interesting intersection between the base and its cushions.
According to rumour, the name Bollo comes from the designer's love for his favourite food: pasta bolognaise. If you eat too much you get round and soft.
