Pelagus (Lounge chair) from Fritz Hansen

The Pelagus series is inspired by the Stockholm archipelago - home to Note Design Studio, the architects and designers behind the design. Note Design Studio is a multi-disciplinary studio that takes a holistic approach to product design, always imagining the furniture in its architectural and spatial context.

When the designers and architects of Note Design Studio sought inspiration for the Pelagus series, they looked to the nautical-inspired culture of Stockholm to set the mood. Laidback, spontaneous, flexible. Evoking the archipelago of their home, the name Pelagus is also a nod to the deep blue sea of the word's ancient Greek origins. It is furniture that suits a lifestyle as diverse as that lived on the Stockholm archipelago, urban and cosmopolitan or far from the city and grounded in nature.

"Whoever you are and wherever you are when you come to lay down on the sunbed or to enjoy this furniture, you just want that laidback feeling." - Susanna Wählin, interior architect, Note Design Studio.

Pelagus is the most extensive series in the Skagerak Collection of outdoor furniture. At its heart is materiality; Pelagus is a restrained combination of solid teak, powder-coated aluminium, and the contemporary Sling fabric. It is high on comfort and versatility with a graceful contemporary expression.

Pelagus has a graceful contemporary expression that sits lightly in nature and holds its own in urban environments. The collection is high on comfort and versatility. It is furniture that suits a lifestyle as diverse as that lived in urban cosmopolitans or far from the city and grounded in nature. Designed in collaboration with Stockholm-based Note Design Studio. Pelagus Lounge Chair is designed for laidback days of sun and sociability. It is perfectly at home on a leafy porch or by the pool on a hotel terrace. The lounge chair has a solid 100% FSC-certified teak frame that evokes a classic Scandinavian typology while the weatherproof Sling fabric seat brings a modern edge with its lightness and transparency. The angle of the seat is perfectly reclined for enjoying hours of comfort and the wooden armrests are wide enough for a drink or a book.
