This Minimal Lounge Chair Anchors You with Nothing but Pure Precision - Yanko Design
Briefly

The Plane Lounge Chair, designed by Jamie McLellan for Resident, challenges conventional lounge chair aesthetics by focusing on minimalism and elemental design. Its pure timber geometry prioritizes function and form, characterized by flat surfaces and bold, slab-like legs that anchor it firmly to the ground. The chair’s design features a single-sheet backrest, offering a unique yet comfortable seating experience without upholstery. Built from quality materials in New Zealand, this chair embodies a radical approach to design, merging object and idea with understated sophistication, making it a subtle yet impactful centerpiece in any room.
Mid-century purists might wince at the thought, but the Plane Lounge Chair doesn't care. It won't play to nostalgia or mimicry.
Every surface is either dead flat or traced from a 2D curve. There's no ambiguous blending or digitally massaged transitions.
It just exists - with a certain architectural inevitability. The comfort comes not from softness, but from precision.
In a way, the Plane Lounge Chair channels the same quiet radicalism as Gerrit Rietveld's Red and Blue Chair.
