Dapper
Dapper is a contemporary armchair inspired by the precision and sophistication of traditional tailoring. Its wraparound backrest embraces the seat before forming a distinctive lapel-like silhouette at the front, creating a confident, sculptural profile. Beneath its refined exterior is a carefully developed ergonomic form, with a slightly more upright backrest, generous seat width and elevated armrests designed to provide comfortable support for longer periods of sitting.
With its relatively shallow depth, Dapper is equally suited to compact residential interiors, quiet workspaces and sophisticated commercial environments. It brings a more purposeful posture to reading, working and informal meetings, while remaining comfortable enough for relaxed use. An optional solid-wood tablet provides a convenient surface for drinks, phones or documents, and a choice of upholstery, two-tone finishes and tablet positioning allows Dapper to be tailored to its surroundings.
