Modular armchair from the 1970s reupholstered in Okapi No.7 from Laurizon.
This timeless modular armchair from the 1970s combines vintage design with modern elegance. With its low, inviting shape, it brings both comfort and character to the room. The armchair has recently been reupholstered in Okapi No.7 fabric from Laurizon – a durable, textured velvet fabric in warm, natural tones that highlight the furniture's design language while flirting with its own decade. The result is a piece of furniture that feels as relevant today as when it was first designed.
