As the importance of personal well-being and authenticity is increasingly recognized, the Hygge Armchair redefines the concept of relaxation and contemplation. Awarded the prestigious SIT Furniture Design Award, the Hygge Armchair is the brainchild of Lucas Fialho Caramés, founder of Studio Lucas Caramés. Inspired by the Hygge lifestyle originating from Scandinavian countries, this armchair embodies the essence of simplicity, contentment, and the appreciation of small everyday gestures.
Drawing influence from the orthogonal furniture of the modernist movement, the Hygge Armchair is a study in the art of combining materials and aesthetics to evoke a sense of nostalgia and preservation of historical heritage. Its clean lines and minimalist design exude timeless elegance, inviting users to sink into a state of relaxation and tranquillity.
The philosophy of Studio Lucas Caramés is deeply rooted in Brazilian design heritage, with a minimalist and contemporary approach that celebrates the country’s modernist roots. Through their creations, they aim to tell stories and evoke emotions, transforming the daily lives of people with thoughtful design.
Lucas Fialho Caramés, the creative force behind Studio Lucas Caramés, is a graduate in Architecture and Urbanism from the Catholic University of Brasilia. His passion for furniture design led him to further his studies at The FIDI Furniture Design Course, where he honed his craft and developed a unique design language that resonates with audiences worldwide.
With its timeless design and unwavering commitment to quality, this armchair invites users to embrace the simple joys of life and find solace in moments of relaxation and contemplation.
