I'm a little proud to introduce this chair for your comments. We have worked really long time and really dedicated on this chair. So I hope you like what you see? And hope you will post your comments of the chair. If you could have it at home. 🙂

"Lay" is made with leg frame of oak and upholstered with high-quality fabrics and leather parts on the armrest.

Lay is a combination of rough and peaceful design, inspired by the Scandinavian winter. (I know it´s summer now☺) Lay is the definition of great comfort and beautiful design mixed together and it´s perfect for the evenings with a great book and a good cup of coffee. The wide design and the wings make it possible to sit relaxed in many different positions.

At the beginning only 100 copies of the exact design will be produced within special editions and will be handmade.

Hi
The chair looks a bit too wide and the arms are even farther apart. As a skinny person, I wonder how functional it would be? What are the dimensions?

I agree with Woodywood.
I also want the "wings" to taper in width to where they meet the arms, to echo the other angles of the chair.

I am the last that should comment
as I really know nothing of design but visually I do not like the blockiness (is that a word?) of the legs, especially on the ottoman

I agree
with all of the above comments.
The planes are so hard and geometric, that for me it produces a feel that is cold.
The cushions feel too plank-like to begin with, but that said, both bases need refinement, and should not feel thicker than the arms and cushions.
This is a great example of the difficulty that all contemporary designers face when they venture too close to the MCM look. It ends up as a much less refined version of many great designs that already exist. Designs produced in the mid century heyday.

I think you
should scrap the ottoman, or at least take it out of the picture. Lighten up the base just a touch, maybe relocate the side stretcher down between the legs as opposed to right under the seat.

One wood
I would prefer that the substructure be made of the same, darker, wood as the hand rests. I also agree with the suggestion to taper the winds narrower at to the bottom.

Nice fun chunky style and angles, will surely keep the draughts away. I imagine it's comfortable. Lesser angles at "wings" of arms would defeat the lounging purpose. I think it's pretty sharp.
The ottoman is also a bench, and would also work well in multiples under windows or at foot of bed, etc.
If it needs anything, it's a monster Brio train set built around it...

Huh?
I am struggling to understand how one's arms would properly rest on those arm rests. The dimensions may shed some light.
Edit: This is not "hate". It is constructive critique based on the image presented. The OP welcomed any comments.
