Lyta on the environment?..new baby boomer generation chair design from Germany

Spotted on Contemporist....

Ronen Kadushin has designed the LYTA chair for the German manufacturer Movisi.




LYTA is a lightweight armchair that weighs as little as 15kg, which enables people at any age to move it around, something especially important to the growing elderly generation.



Thanks to a specially developed fitting method, the cushions and the covers are easy to remove for washing. The structure can even be steam-cleaned. All components are individually replaceable, which means that you do not have to replace an entire chair again, and because the frame is made of ARPRO EPP (Expanded Polypropylene), it’s 100% recyclable.
