Varier Ekstrem , 1984 Original Manufacturer: Variér Furniture > Designer: Terje Ekström > Country: Norway

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Ekstrem™ is modern and functional. It’s distinguished by its design purity and stands out by virtue of its unconventional construction.

The Ekstrem was developed as a prototype in 1972 by Terje Ekstrom. The chair was commercialised 12 years later, in a time where new designers tried to break with existing norms within Scandinavian furniture.

The sculptural shape makes the chair a real 80's icon and a true ambassadeur of post modernistic design.

Ekstrem is a static chair, nevertheless with the possibilities of movement and variation that Variér® holds as key principles. The open structure allows you to sit forward with feet on the ground, sideways with legs calmly placed on the armrests, or completely backwards with the front of the torso against the chair's back. The unconventional shapes invite your fantasy to let go of existing norms.

Suitable for receptions, hallways and lobbies, or even in nursery schools and childrens’ rooms.
