Torso Chair leather brown beige natural wood Leather - Design House Stockholm

Designer Lisa Hilland dreamt of creating furniture that combined both of her interests – fashion and design – in a self-evident manner. After a great deal of thought she came up with the Torso chair designed for Design House Stockholm.
“When I was younger I could not decide whether to devote myself to fashion or furniture design. Now I wanted to find out if I could design an item of furniture that combined my interests, that I could dress up in the way in which one dresses a torso”, Lisa explains.
The fact that the chair is manufactured in Sweden is seriously important to Lisa who prefers to work close to the manufacturer with all of the skills that can be accessed there. During her career she has worked with a succession of Swedish firms that maintain craft traditions and local manufacture. “Swedish firms are very bad at telling the world how skilled they are, the knowledge that they possess and the responsibility that they feel for the environment. But I think that today's consumers are increasingly demanding this type of information. People want to know where furniture comes from as well as how it has been manufactured. When one understands how a piece of furniture has been made one is also willing to pay for quality”, Lisa maintains.
