This modern lounge chair by Alvar Alto for Artek was originally designed for tuberculosis patients to sit in for long hours every day. The chair’s back is angled so that the patient can breathe most easily. It is made from bent laminated birch with a solid birch frame. ©2010 Design Milk | Posted by Jaime in Home Furnishings | Permalink | No comments | Tweet This | Share on Facebook Facebook – Design Milk – Artek – Social network – Health
