"Form follows function" — the saying, by Louis Sullivan, has left its mark on generations of designers. Reduced form and visible function are the insignia of functional design. "But there is more to it than that today: the sensuousness of the minimalist," says Walter Knoll."EOOS has taken the idea of functional clarity and given it its own interpretation."
According to the company, "the Atelier Chair is a gentle ascetic. Leather and steel are the skin and bones — minimised and timeless, elegant and sustainable. Taut leather stretches over the steel framework — just as you would expect of genuine tubular steel furniture. The visible construction reveals the function of the chair. And ticking all the boxes: the patina effect — because leather does not reveal its true beauty until it is in use."
The chair presents an easily adjustable headrest. The leather slides over the neck roll, and the height of the backrest changes. The leather gives way to the user's shoulders to ensure comfort.
