Vuelta Chaiselounge

Eclectic, exciting, Mediterranean Baroque – and yet wonderfully timeless. These are the characteristics that define the eye-catching style brought into being by the playful collaboration between Spanish artist and designer Jaime Hayon and Austrian furniture maker Wittmann. If the brief was to create furniture to counteract boredom, then it’s safe to say mission accomplished. Jaime Hayon’s collection for Wittmann truly brings colour into the picture, in every respect. My private island: a classic free-standing chaise longue is always something of a private retreat, even when it is part of a larger ensemble. Vuelta’s sensual lines have found a logical progression in this chaise longue (W 190cm). The distinctive upholstery of the backrest that gives Vuelta its unmistakable character sweeps protectively around the headrest of this day bed, creating an island that can be shared – but need not be.
