Siesta 304 Classic Foot Stool

Ingmar Relling, 1965

Designed in the 1960’s by Ingmar Relling the Siesta 302 Chair is a true 20th century classic. With the success of the Siesta Chair, Relling was responsible for placing Norway firmly on the worldwide furniture map and helped to strengthen the growing Scandinavian design movement.

Light, resilient and elegant the Siesta 302 Classic unites technical, functional and aesthetic qualities of an exceptional standard. A key component to Siesta’s integrity was Relling’s desire to create a chair that was ‘considerate to nature.’ Transport costs are minimised with low weight and compact packaging.

LK Hjelle

Ingmar Relling designed the Siesta in 1965: a laminated frame, a canvas sling and leather cushions, light enough to lift with one hand and comfortable enough to stay in.

Ingmar Relling

Relling set up his own studio in Sykkylven, on Norway's furniture coast, in 1950. The Siesta won first prize in the Norwegian furniture industry's chair competition the year it was designed, 1965. It has since furnished homes around the world, the White House among them.
