Designed by: Gerrit Thomas Rietveld
Manufactured by: Cassina
Designed by Dutch architect Gerrit Thomas Rietveld in 1935 for the Metz&Co. department store, the Utrecht lounge chair takes its name from the native city of its author. Among the most recognizable pieces by Cassina, which has produced it under exclusive global rights since 1988, the armchair is distinguished by its unmistakable clean, dynamic graphic rhythm punctuated by the juxtaposition of elements that form right angles. Utrecht is the perfect synthesis of experimentation and comfort. The outdoor version maintains the same aesthetic and constructive features as the larger model, the Utrecht XL, developed to offer more ample, comfortable seating. The materials and upholstery were carefully studied for suitability in outdoor settings. The soft recycled PET batting is laminated to a water-repellent lining that wraps the internal metal structure and Okoume wood armrests, preventing water from penetrating. The exposed zippers, along with the Velcro® closures hidden under the seat and armrests allow complete removal of the upholstery, which is all in one piece, without disassembling the elements that make up the lounge chair. Regular use of protective covers, available for separate purchase, helps preserve the aesthetic and functional characteristics of the outdoor product. However, it is recommended to place products intended for outdoor use in controlled environments such as verandas and covered or partially covered terraces, avoiding full exposure to direct sunlight and weather conditions. Manufactured by Cassina.
