Niemeyer II Armchair

Niemeyer II

Designed by Joana Santos Barbosa, the rounded forms of the Niemeyer II armchair are influenced by the modernist House of Canoas of Oscar Niemeyer. Having a refined design with architectural details, this armchair is minimal and yet a statement piece. The upholstery work is meticulous, with seams reduced to essential, in order to reproduce the backward movement of flat roof when seen from an aerial view. Upholstered in a special woven bouclé, this welcoming armchair receives people with a gentle embrace and feels the most comfortable place in the room.

Niemeyer II Armchair by Joana Santos Barbosa was featured as a grand illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Awards. Niemeyer II Armchair earned the Golden A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2022. The A' Furniture Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design recognition program that honors superior design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
