Mitt Lounge Chair

Description

The Mitt Chair’s comfortable and relaxed form, reminiscent of the baseball glove that served as Mitt’s inspiration and name. True to form, stitching and tailoring play an integral part in its appeal. It is the perfect chair for the guaranteed constant in our world – change.
Mitt is equipped with weight-locking casters and a tailored handle for mobility, allowing the user to rearrange a space quickly. Either a standard or distinctive loop-master stitch can be specified. The design also allows users to custom order contrasting cording and handle colors.
The Mitt chairs were designed by Claudia and Harry Washington. The duo’s early work in furniture design began with three lounges named L’Astiko, Lola, and Olga, which were initially exhibited at Contempo, a USAID sponsored design competition in El Salvador. After winning Contempo, they were invited to exhibit their work at ICFF 2008 in New York. Their six-piece collection of sofas and tables, Calibra, was part of Bernhardt Design’s 2009 Global Edition.
