Sustainable Dutch Designer Armchair by De Vorm
The De Vorm LJ1 Armchair demonstrates how recycled materials can become an integral part of contemporary furniture design rather than simply an environmental addition.
Designed by Laurens van Wieringen, the chair uses De Vorm's PET Felt technology, where recycled PET bottles are pressed into a single moulded shell. This process creates a soft, tactile seating surface while reducing the need for multiple traditional upholstery components.
The PET Felt shell also provides acoustic dampening, making the LJ1 particularly well suited to open-plan dining areas, offices, meeting spaces, hospitality environments, and other interiors where sound management matters.
Its light grey shell and white steel frame give the chair a restrained Scandinavian-influenced appearance that integrates easily into contemporary interiors without losing its distinctive designer character.
