Wood Frame Low Back Lounge Chair in Walnut and Leather Designed by Craig Bassam
About the Item
“Living in a glass house makes you design pieces to look immaculate from every angle,” says Craig Bassam, who designed the BassamFellows Wood Frame Lounge Collection for his own home. The outcome is a remarkably lightweight, yet sophisticated lounge range that looks extremely elegant however it is eventually displayed.
Despite being conceived ‘in the round,’ the lounges are infinitely adaptable pieces, appearing as chic in downtown Manhattan lofts as they do in Connecticut modernist homes. This versatility is the result of the lounge’s sublime, rigorously conceived form, which deconstructs the bulkiness of traditional lounge seating. As such, the form is reduced to its essence — an exposed structural wood frame elevated to fine cabinetry and a system of thin, layered cushions for ultimate comfort.
The structural honesty achieves the appearance of a “floating” seat, angled for ergonomic balance, allowing the user to settle in rather than perch. The Wood Frame series includes a low back, a high back, and a reinterpretation of a classic wing back – all available in club chair, settee, and sofa versions.
Comfort is also of utmost importance. Within its minimal profile are seat and back cushions comprised of a variable density foam core surrounded by plush down and feather pillows that are hand sewn, tufted and welted. Lumbar and bolster cushions are removable and are comprised of down and feather fill. Upholstery options for this new modern classic include a rich palette of natural grain leathers from Scandinavian hides and a curated selection of fine textiles.

BassamFellows
For nearly 20 years, architect Craig Bassam and creative director Scott Fellows have been redefining American luxury with their own unique modernist philosophy of “Craftsman Modern.” Building on successful careers in luxury and design, they are responsible for a collection of furniture whose distinctive style matches the most elevated craftsmanship to architectural rigor and sensual minimalism. They create aspirational products that will last generations for real, modern lives. From the outset, Bassam and Fellows had a unique idea of what a lifestyle brand could be. They aspired to an intelligent lifestyle vision. Their work would be inspired by early modernism and its appreciation for the natural environment, and be infused with the resonance of classic craftsmanship. Their work would also, crucially, be built to last – it would be an artful riposte to and rejection of the disposable nature of what architect and writer George Nelson described as “Kleenex culture”. This clarity of vision manifested itself in the company’s first collection, which debuted at the 2003 Salone del Mobile in Milan. The pieces included the seminal solid timber Tractor Stool, a contemporized version of an old Swiss tractor seat. The finished piece artfully married two disparate aesthetics: the rigorous authority of architecture and the honest, humanistic character of the handmade.

- Geometric Lounge Chair in Walnut, Satin Nickel and Leather by Craig BassamBy BassamFellowsLocated in Ridgefield, CTThe Geometric Collection from BassamFellows celebrates the sublimity of pure geometry championed by the Wiener Werkstätte and the Bauhaus. In the same way that designers of these two influential schools tested the liberating material properties of bentwood and tubular steel, Bassam refined a set of constraints to spirit cold-rolled tubular steel into forms that hold the horizontal planes of a seat deck or tabletop, achieving the poetic appearance of extreme lightness and suspension. These stately steel scaffolds operate as a connective tissue uniting the furniture’s functional elements in a Gesamtkunstwerk, or total work of art, a synthesis central to BassamFellows’ philosophy of formal and functional coherence in design. The Geometric side chair elegantly combines a variety of materials in a single design. It features an ergonomically shaped seat carved from solid Walnut and a lightweight pellicle skin of Vienna caning...Category
