Siesta
Ingmar Relling Ingmar Relling was an impassioned designer, who created a series of functional furniture designs during his long career. Today he is considered as one of the greatest contributors to the golden era of Scandinavian Design. Simplicity, minimalism, elegance and uncompromising quality are key concepts in all of Relling’s designs. In 1965 Ingmar Relling designed his greatest creation: the Siesta chair. The Siesta is a simply harmonious and classical chair, free of unnecessary details, but with a comfort to die for. No wonder that today the Siesta chair stands out as an internationally recognised classic and a Norwegian icon.
Ingmar Relling, 1920 – 2002
Siesta Classic Siesta Classic is true to its origin and to Ingmar Relling’s original idea of the Siesta chair – an elegant design, an optimized use of materials and an outstanding comfort. Design and function hand in hand. The soft cushions make Siesta Classic the typical easy chair, but the light frame gives the chair a beautiful sense of lightness. Together the cushions and the slightly flexible frame ensure a very high level of seating comfort. The result? Siesta Classic is the perfect seat for relaxation, the perfect spot for a classic siesta.
Siesta Fiora Siesta Fiora is an icon still as beautiful today as when it was designed. Simplicity, minimalism and functionality are represented in one chair. To Ingmar Relling the correlation between design and function was always essential, and Siesta Fiora is no exception. The eye-catching, sculptural silhouette gives Siesta Fiora an elegant, sleek appearance and makes the chair easily adapt to any room or space without loosing its great comfort and distinctive character. Once you have tried it, you will without doubt fall in love.
Siesta Trio To celebrate Siesta’s 50th anniversary we launched Siesta Trio. Siesta Trio applauds the classic icon’s great correlation between design and function, but at the same time emphasizes Siesta’s ability to stay unaffected by time. Hence the name: Siesta Trio has three separate cushions that all together offer your body a unique comfort and an extra support for your lower back. The threefold expression gives the chair a modern attitude and a playful design. It’s a feast: Congratulations Siesta – and welcome Siesta Trio!
Siesta Ovis To celebrate Siesta’s traditions and use of natural materials the chair got a new suit in 2021. Sheepskin is a traditional material used by mankind for centuries due to its properties such as warmth and durability. «Ovis» means sheep in Latin, hence the name: Siesta Ovis. Siesta Ovis is available in three different colors of sheepskin: Moonlight, Maple and Scandinavian Grey. Its soft and cosy appearance invites you to sit for hours and makes for the perfect spot to relax!
