Lounge chair with armrests and plastic cords

Dating to the 1960s, this blue lounge chair is characterised by the plastic cords wrapped around its metal frame and wooden armrests. Plastic being one of the synthetic materials, was in vogue as it made it possible to mass-produce products cheaply. The 1960s was a period where bright colours, psychedelia, imaginative forms and new materials dominated in design, reflective of the lifestyle of the Swinging Sixties, the raging pop culture, Space Age and of the rise of an adventurous generation. The design of this chair also makes it breathable and comfortable for the user in the tropical climate.
