LILIAN Fabric armchair

Lilian is the progeny of famous parents.‎ In 1910 Josef Hoffmann created a new type of furniture in the form of Alleegasse: a modern, compact standalone armchair with a light appearance that is at home in all kinds of settings.‎ In 1986 Paolo Piva created Aura, another global bestseller in this category.‎ And now these classics, still produced by Wittmann to this day, are joined by a new, fresh design.‎ Lilian pays homage to Josef Hoffmann and Paolo Piva.‎ Eschewing short-lived trends, its development instead turned to design principles: playing with geometric shapes, reduction to the necessary dimensions, the quest for archetypal beauty.‎
Lilian is a highly attractive link between Bauhaus and organic design.‎ The clear, square underlying form of the body of the chair flows into the ergonomic, circular fold of the back and armrests.‎ There is nothing left to add, and nothing to take away.‎ Lilian is light and slender, long-legged and graceful, offering the perfect ratio between space and comfort.‎ The seat contains classic Wittmann pocket-sprung mats for exceptional and enduring seating comfort.‎
Minimal in appearance, the stitching allows form, colour and material to bask in the limelight.‎ Anyone who prefers to move away from pure simplicity can let their imagination run riot.‎ Lilian is either available as straight with a pure smooth cover, or casual, laid-back and creased variants.‎ Another option is dual colour: Lilian is either covered in the same colour material inside and out, or in a two-tone variant with different colours on the inside and outside.‎ This gives rise to exciting combinations: soft leather and structured fabrics, velour and smooth fabrics, monochrome textiles and patterned covers.‎
Lilian is also available as a dining chair in the high Version.‎
