The Ibiza Lounge Chair is a low, relaxed seat carried by a single uninterrupted chrome-plated steel tube. Designed in 1950 for the architect's own summer house on Ibiza, it is a gentle piece of Spanish rationalism.
The Design Story
Germán Rodríguez Arias was a founder of GATEPAC, the group that brought the modern movement to Spain alongside figures such as Sert and Torres Clavé. He later worked as Pablo Neruda's architect on the remodeling of his house at Isla Negra. In 1950 he designed this chair to furnish his summer home on Ibiza. A continuous steel tube holds a low seat and a deep backrest made for long conversation. Seat and back are upholstered by hand.
