Designed by French designer Patrick Jouin for Ethimo, the Sofia folding chair with armrests is a contemporary reinterpretation of the classic director’s chair archetype. Moving away from the traditionally rigid, boxy, and cubic shape associated with standard folding chairs, Sofia folding chair with armrests introduces a fluid, sculptural silhouette that brings the elegance and comfort of indoor furniture to open-air settings. The core structural identity of Sofia relies on the traditional X-shaped frame—the essential construction principle of any folding chair. However, Jouin redefines this look with smoother lines and continuity. Instead of meeting at sharp 90-degree angles, the back leg extends long and sweeps upward to match the deliberate slant of the backrest, giving the chair a sensual, dynamic balance. The armrests serve as the chair's primary visual anchor, resolving into a single, clean, highly recognizable line when viewed from behind.
