Bun Armchair
Design: Federica Biasi (2024)There is scarcely a more relaxing way of sitting than embracing the low-tempo, laid back motion of a swivel chair. BUN not only features the wonderful attribute of a swivel base, it also ties together the skills of designer and manufacturer in a charming and inspirational way. The result is a manifesto for Federica Biasi's design signature and one of Wittmann's most important areas of expertise: the eminently comfortable lounge chair.
Biasi draws a lot of creative energy from her travels: as a piece of upholstered furniture, BUN’s design clearly found inspiration in the distinctive shape of the Asian bao bun from which it takes its name. Flexible, individual and undogmatic – just like its culinary counterpart – different variants open up a wealth of aesthetic options that integrate seamlessly into a full spectrum of settings.
Federica Biasi has infused her upholstered BUN with a characteristic yet casual form: BUN may be understated, but it is certainly not inconspicuous. A certain laid-back, sporty air makes BUN incredibly inviting, and its balanced proportions lend the lounge chair to virtually any situation. Concealed in the base is a robust swivel mechanism – a persuasive feature, not only for comfortably ticking back and forth in the living room at home, but also one that lends it to executive lounges or offices.
