Arper - Adell polypropylene armchair and steel legs

Lounge armchair on frame with four legs in painted steel. Polypropylene shell with distinctive texture, made of 80% recycled material, available in four colors. Shell with hole for water drainage. Smooth as a pebble, delicate as a soft expanse of moss. The rounded lines of Adell evoke a suggestive natural presence, for use both indoors and outdoors. With its 80% recycled polypropylene shell, the soothing shape of this chair has been designed with sustainability in mind, benefiting both body and spirit. Soft and light, yet solid and hearty, Adell’s sleek shell offers a cozy and comfortable shelter to take a break.


Designed for both residential and contract contexts, Adell is perfectly suited to many situations, both indoor and outdoor: from lounge areas to waiting rooms, from common areas to home spaces. Designed with a strong propensity for sustainability, Adell lounge chairs can be completely disassembled, for the reuse or recycling of all materials. The recycled polypropylene shell is distinguished by the peculiarity of its texture, which recalls the concentric patterns of the rings in a tree trunk. The shell is available in view, with sitting pad or fully covered.  Accessory cushions (seat cushion and front cushion) are also available for open seating, both indoor and outdoor. The base is available in four metal legs and sled and four wooden legs.

Arper

Arper creates chairs, tables and furnishing accessories for the community, work and home.
Our approach is relationship-oriented, and translates into a design focused on aesthetics and usability; in a global, innovative and personalized service; in the enhancement of local contexts within internationalization strategies; in organizational policies always marked by transparency and the maintenance of a solid and coherent brand identity.

A FAMILY STORY - We were born in 1989, as a family business. We have grown rapidly: from simple furniture manufacturers, to international design brands. Our inclusive approach, focused on people, has accompanied the growth of turnover and employees: passed, the latter, from a few tens to several hundred within a few years.

OUR APPROACH TO DESIGN - Giving birth to a new product means taking care: of every phase of its development-from design, to production, to its environmental impact. We do this by combining form and function, always with great attention to detail: the final synthesis is perfect, in its elegance.

A UNIQUE SENSITIVITY - Our design idea follows the versatility of essential shapes. Over time, our approach has developed from six core concepts.
Balance, Family, Intuition, Lightness, Colour, Play.

"Fifteen years ago, we created the Arper Environmental Department, our first tentative step in a world where sustainability was increasingly becoming a crucial issue for our generation. The first thing to do is to accept our responsibilities: we are part of the problem, and we are all part of it. Such a revelation requires a reaction: we are designers, problems are our daily bread, so why not start designing a responsible environmental path."
