Story

A Scandinavian tradition, reinterpreted

The page says the Alison armchair draws upon Scandinavian design tradition and reinterprets it through a completely contemporary lens. The saddle hide seat back is credited with providing optimal support.

Combinations

Flexform presents the combinations as endless and unique: a solid wood structure stained in many shades, a saddle hide seat back in an array of colours, and a padded seat that takes the house's exclusive fabrics and leathers.
