The Cono Lounge Chair centers on a hemispherical upholstered seat, securely set atop a slender metal base, with a voluminous circular backrest extending upward to create striking visual tension. Upholstered in bold, vibrant velvet, it contrasts sharply with the sleek black metal frame, producing a design that is both dynamic and harmonious.
Born in 1967, Henrik Pedersen graduated as a fashion designer in 1990 and now runs 365° North, a Danish design studio based in Aarhus that focuses on lifestyle-based design, ranging from furniture and lighting to projects for clothing and food packaging companies.
His furniture designs are characterized by elegance, exquisite materials, and formal clarity.
"For me, design must have a meaning. The shape, colour and choice of materials have to complement each individual design. Good design is functional, beautiful and easy to understand."
