Bauhaus Lounge Chair in Leather & Chrome by Johan Bertil Häggström for Ikea, 1970s
Striking lounge chair designed in the 1970s by Swedish designer Johan Bertil Häggström for IKEA, a rare example of the brand’s Bauhaus-inspired experiments.
The continuous chrome-plated tubular steel frame forms the armrests, sides, and base in a single flowing line, supporting a taut black fabric sling and generously upholstered cushions. Covered in smooth black leather, the cushions create soft, slightly sloping armrests and a deep, inviting seat, combining comfort with a floating, architectural presence. The contrast of supple leather and cool steel echoes Bauhaus modernism, yet with a softer, homelier character typical of IKEA’s progressive 1970s series.
