Kaskad

Armchair

Design Björn Dahlström

The award-winning Kaskad armchair was inspired by the movement of water surging over rapids. Crafted from ribbons of curved steel attached to a contouring frame, the chair’s fluid form and flowing lines recalls shapes commonly used in contemporary art more than in industrial design. The Armchair is maintenance-free, ergonomic and stackable. The armchair, which was launched by Nola in 2011, has been awarded over the years with prizes such as the Swedish Design S Award and the Red Dot Design Award Winner.
