Lounge Chair Metal by Vitra
The LCM chair comes from Vitra's Plywood Collection. LCM stands for Lounge Chair Metal and is designed by the design duo Charles and Ray Eames. The experiments with plywood formed for Charles and Ray Eames the beginning of a search for new methods by which rigid materials can adapt to the shapes of the human body. In the design of the Plywood Chair, this idea of three-dimensionally formed plywood shells is expressed most clearly. For the production of the Plywood Group, wood layers are bent into shapes. The thin wooden shells of the backrest and seat support the body with their gently curved surfaces. The individual elements are attached to the frame with elastic rubber discs; these provide extra seating comfort.
