Skrolla is a designer lounge chair for residential or contract use. It is extremely comfortable due to its unique bent wood curvature and ideal dimensions and angles.

It is constructed in a completely new way for a chair from only six wood parts (utility patented). Skrolla comes in a walnut, natural oak, or ebony ash finish.

Skrolla features a revolutionary new way to assemble a chair, and as such, it has a completely fresh and unique appearance and a comfortable seating position.

The Problem: Most designer lounge chairs are bulky, heavy, complex to manufacture, expensive, and look too similar. They needed a new approach.

A lounge chair embodies the very best of what design can be. A great lounge chair is comfortable, beautiful, and wonderfully revealing of its materials and processes. This is Skrolla.

Skrolla’s construction is so novel it was granted a utility patent. Thirteen layers of veneer are epoxied together and then placed in a vacuum bag which pulls the veneer over a form. When the epoxy sets, the scroll shaped seat becomes very rigid. The seat pops right off the form due to the wide draft angle, which is the ideal seat recline angle. The seat and back are then shaped, and holes are drilled for legs which are inserted and glued to the underside of the arms. The backrest then mortises into the back legs.

The legs are 1.5” diameter at the bottom and 1.25” in between seat and arms, so the sitter's weight rests on these four “shoulders.”

Skrolla has only six parts (four legs, a seat, and a back). There is an optional upholstered seat cushion.

Skrolla is lightweight but extremely strong due to its unique scroll box construction.

Skrolla advances its category just as the Eames chairs did 75 years ago.
