The emphasis on simplicity and functionality makes these chairs versatile pieces suitable for a variety of interior settings. Whether used in dining rooms, living areas, offices, or as accent pieces in galleries and showrooms, these chairs are both practical and stylish. Historically, the ‘Lundi-sit’ chairs reflect the 1970s Dutch design movement, which prioritized simplicity, functionality, and the innovative use of materials.
