FAYE TOOGOOD’S Puffy lounge chair is based on a delightful contrast of forms and materials. Manufactured by Stockholm-based brand Hem, the lounge chair consists of a streamlined, tubular steel frame and a plump, quilt-like cushion resting freely on the frame, now upholstered also in a chunky bouclé fabric.

In 2021, the Puffy lounge chair was awarded the Born Classic prize by Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair and Bukowskis. The award is given yearly to a new product that the prize’s jury believes to become a future classic of Nordic design – and Design Stories wholeheartedly agrees.
