This unique collection of upholstered parts was created by Kerstin H. Holmquist. She was working in a furniture workshop and architect studio where for one of her many exhibits she produced this series. She called her Paradiset-inspired pieces (Swedish for Eden or Paradise). The first item of the set was the feminine lounge chair-Eva and then his masculine counterpart, Adam, followed up. She has also later produced a sofa to complement the two.
The Armchair 406 is made from a birch wood frame and a linen webbed seat, available in a variety of colours. The armrests are made from one piece that is then split into two, ensuring that as the wooden chair ages, it remains perfectly balanced.
The Armchair 41 Paimio is made from form-pressed birch plywood and was originally created for a sanatorium in the Finnish city of Paimio. The timeless design of the Armchair 41 Paimio has a seat that is fixed to the frame in only four points, which allows the chair to have a large amount of elasticity and comfort.

The armrests for this piece of modern furniture are surprisingly comfortable, with a backrest that continues into the seat of the chair that is exceedingly comfortable. The Domus Lounge Chair is part of a series that was created for the Domus Academia student housing complex in Helsinki. It was designed to be sat in for long periods of time and was rewarded a great success internationally.
Made of stiff tubes and pliable rope, the Rope Chair is portrayed as a silhouette, rather than a solid block. This creative structure encourages dynamic movement and adapts to those who use it.
