Story
Between Sweden and California
GUBI describes the GMG Chaise Longue as a literal link between European design and Californian modernism, combining Grossman's Swedish fondness for colour and texture with the bright, open spaces of Southern California.
Made for relaxation
The page says the shape is built for relaxation, mirrors the body's natural curves and appears to float above its slender legs, which it calls a genuine signature of Grossman's work.
