Jon Gasca designer explains us the details of STUA Calma: Calma lounge is the result of the search for a light, weatherproof, outdoor comfort. For the frame we use the strongest and most durable material: stainless steel. The armrests are flat, so we can leave our phone or drink.The arms have a curved shape that embraces us; and are made of black or white HPL that match the structure. The foam is Dryfeel, which allows water to pass through and dries quickly. The fabrics of Calma are made of polypropylene, which is the best material for outdoor use. The supporting sling is hidden inside the upholstery and is made of resistant Batyline netting.Calma has a headrest attached to the upholstery. This cushion can be used for a more active position, such as reading, and pulled back for a more relaxed attitude. The simple ottoman has a hidden inner base made of HPL, so it can be used as a footrest, as stool or even as a table.Calma is stackable, both with and without upholstery.

As you can see, we have tried to make a different kind of armchair that makes comfort paramount. CALMA: www.stua.com/design/calma
