How little is truly needed to create comfort in a lounge chair? Can we redefine the classic design, eliminating fabric and foam, while still achieving ultimate relaxation and comfort?

VENAIR is our bold answer to this challenge.
By pushing the traditional technique of molded veneer to its limit, we've crafted a soft seat using modules just 3 mm thin. No foam, no springs—only sleek wooden elements that adapt naturally to your body.

The modular lounge chair is designed for easy disassembly, making it simple to repair, reuse, or even expand.

And if desired, its flexible structure can be dressed in a double-sided fabric, adding another layer of comfort and style.
