Product description

Armchair 42 - or "Little Paimio" - was designed by Alvar Aalto for the Paimio Sanatorium in 1932. The frame is made of laminated birch in the shape of a cantilever chair; the seat and backrest are made of one piece of pressed plywood. The fluidity of the design creates a soft and comfortable place to sit. The result is an armchair without straight lines, an armchair with exceptional aesthetics. Because wood changes over time, the armrests are molded from one piece, which is then split in half, ensuring the chair remains perfectly balanced as it ages.
Frame: Form-bent solid birch slats
Seat shell: pressed birch plywood
The product is available in black or white.
