Stylish Woodwork
The Sculpted armchair was inspired by the curvy shapes of the
Art Nouveau style and the traditionalist furniture movement of
the 1980s. Thomas Lamb cited the work of Spanish Art Nouveau architect
Antonio Gaudi as inspiration for the chair's carved solid wood frame.
Not your average office chair
In 1982, Lamb began an eight-year term at Nienkamper, a Toronto-based
upscale office furniture manufacturer. Like many designers before
him, Lamb considered the chair as a means of expression and considered
designs that paid attention to function and form. He designed the
elegantly sculptured armchair to be used as a conference chair or
as an occasional chair. |
