Apollo Armchair, Dark Brass Frame and Blue Wool by Lara Bohinc
About the Item
The Apollo armchair further evolves the Apollo design family, through the addition of an elegant backrest to the chair, embodying a further contrasting combination of intricate metalwork and deep, comfortable upholstery. The backrest comprises of one large rotund cushion, flanked by two small cushioned discs. The delicate upright metalwork holds the three generously upholstered cushions in place, retaining the floating aesthetic expressed in the seat and armrests.
With sustainability increasingly shaping the design world, at Bohinc Studio we rely on durable design solutions.
?‘In order to be environmentally friendly, pieces have to be either durable or made from materials that can be fully recycled and transformed completely into new products’, says Lara Bohinc, whose furniture for Bohinc Studio is predominantly made of metal. ‘Metal is not only long-lasting, it can also be reused infinitely. With its inherent longevity and durability, metal is viable from both economic and environmental point of view, making it one of the only truly eco-friendly materials to make furniture with. No other material can be used over and over again to produce such long lasting usage.’
The chair is made in oxidised brass and Italian wool fabric. Please note that the slight variations in brass colour are normal as oxidation is a natural process. We can also make the frame in brushed brass.
The chair is made by hand in Portugal.

Bohinc Studio
Lara Bohinc MBE studied Industrial Design at the Ljubljana Academy of Fine Arts, followed by Metalwork and Jewellery at Royal College of Art London (MA). After graduation, she won British Fashion Council’s New Generation Award and launched her own studio. She was design consultant for many luxury brands, amongst them Montblanc, Gucci and most notably Cartier, a position she held for over a decade. A mark of her work is versatility. A passionate believer in the universality of good design, she made the most of the opportunities to bridge the divide between jewellery, objects and furniture. Bohinc’s ability to create work of everlasting beauty is rooted in her familiarity with industrial processes. While retaining a deep respect for the traditional principles of her craft, she has also drawn on her knowledge of industrial techniques, fusing modernity of style with function to achieve a contemporary elegance. The same principles apply in all of her designs – use of the finest materials, and an obsession with deconstruction and reconfiguration of pure geometric form. Overall, Bohinc’s signature style is a mix of contradictions: bold yet light, graphic yet fluid, angular yet feminine. Her first furniture piece was the Solaris Kinetic Table, made in collaboration with stone experts Lapicida for Wallpaper “Handmade” exhibition in 2014. The success of this piece resulted in two further collections of marble furniture and interior accessories.
