Designed by Claesson Koivisto Rune for Arflex in 2024, the Brigitte Bergère Armchair is a generous, enveloping lounge chair created around the ideas of comfort, openness, and personal retreat. Its spacious seating area allows for a relaxed range of seating positions, while the bergère configuration creates a softer, more secluded environment around the sitter. The design has an inviting presence that feels substantial without sacrificing contemporary elegance. In comparison with the standard Brigitte armchair, the bergère version places greater emphasis on creating what Arflex describes as a soft, semi-private personal space, making it particularly suited to moments of relaxation and quiet retreat. With its generous proportions, high level of comfort, and extensive upholstery selection, the Brigitte Bergère Armchair offers a sophisticated seating solution for contemporary residential and hospitality interiors.
