Metro­pol­i­tan High-Back Lounge

for  B&B Italia

or Call to Order

The Metro­pol­i­tan High-Back lounge designed by Jeffrey Bernett is char­ac­ter­ized by the combi­na­tion of gentle curves and engag­ing cants that create strik­ing and sculp­tural forms when viewed from any angle. The Metro­pol­i­tan range features a low, mid, high back as well as a wing­back lounge chair with neck rest and an optional ottoman. All versions of the lounge feature a central column swivel support that culmi­nates in four splayed spokes to form the base – the high­back version is also avail­able with swivel colum­nar support and simple flat disc base.

The Metro­pol­i­tan lounge noted here is the High­back version; it features an inter­nal compo­si­tion in steel with Bayfit cold-shaped polyurethane foam with poly­ester padding. The Metro­pol­i­tan lounge chair’s inno­v­a­tive roll-shaped neck cushion on the tall back version is adjustable through the clever use of magnets. Its base is composed of bright, brushed die-cast and extruded aluminum – the spokes culmi­nate in plastic glides.
