The history of the Platner Easy Chair

 

The Platner Easy Chair is a striking and iconic piece of mid-century modern furniture, renowned for its sculptural silhouette and innovative use of materials. Designed by Warren Platner in 1966, the Platner Easy Chair exemplifies the designer's ability to create furniture that blends function and form with elegant simplicity.

 

Platner, who was known for his visionary approach to architecture and interior design, conceived the Easy Chair as a celebration of the inherent beauty of metal. The chair's distinctive base is composed of a series of curved, nickel-plated steel rods that radiate outward, creating a delicate, lace-like frame that supports the gently contoured seat and backrest.

 

The Platner Easy Chair's graceful, almost ethereal appearance is complemented by its exceptional comfort and support. Platner's meticulous attention to ergonomics ensured that the chair would envelop the sitter in a warm, cosseting embrace, providing a sense of weightlessness and relaxation.
