Sesann Lounge Chair

The Sesann Lounge Chair was orig­i­nally created by Gian­franco Frat­tini in 1970 for Cassina. Recently rein­tro­duced by Tacchini, this lounge chair is an example of Frattini’s exam­i­na­tion of form and func­tion. The key design element of this chair is the archi­tec­tural tubular steel that frames the soft uphol­stery for seating. Frat­tini reduces the tradi­tional struc­ture of a lounge chair to create a unique and mini­mal­ist form. By playing with the volume and soft­ness of the cush­ion­ing against a rigid frame of steel tubing, Frat­tini has devel­oped a design that is visu­ally and concep­tu­ally elegant. The Sesann lounge chair is avail­able in a wide range of tubular steel finishes and colors as well as a variety of upholstery choices.
