NORR11 is pleased to announce the launch of the
Nomad lounge chair. Designed by Kristian Sofus
Hansen and Tommy Hyldahl, the Nomad is a
comfortable lounge chair made of bamboo wood
with leather cushions.
“We wanted to create a light natural lounge
chair of bamboo with the comfort of a traditional
lounge chair. The biggest challenge was without
a doubt creating the large back and seat frames
and a back leg that runs all the way from the floor
to the top in one whole piece. We worked on it with
local craftspeople and skilled manufacturers.
After countless experiments we ended up with a
highly comfortable and stylish lounge chair”
says designer Kristian Sofus Hansen.
The Nomad Chair is a Nordic interpretation
of the traditional Moroccan wicker chair
where the number of joints is reduced to
its function only. The name “Nomad” is a
characteristic contraction of the terms
“Nordic” and “Moroccan”.
The seat and back are made of two large molded
bamboo frames, with inlaid French bamboo
mesh. The semi-transparent bamboo mesh
gives the large surface a light expression and
highlights the Nomad’s beautiful construction.
The chair comes with a neck pillow with three
height variations, as well as a seat cushion for
optimal comfort. Both pillows are produced in
leather, which compliments the warm bamboo
of the Nomad.
