The 'Sling' leather hanging chair has been designed by Joanina Pastoll and David Pastoll of Studio Stirling as a minimalist seating solution that would drastically enhance the aesthetic of a space while keeping it functional for everyday use.
The chair is characterized by its handmade design that is achieved using a circular steel frame that has been powder-coated and paired with a thick sheet of oil-tanned leather for seat section. The piece is held in place using a series of straps to allow for suspension from the ceiling and finished with South African shwe-shwe fabric on the lining.
The 'Sling' leather hanging chair comes in both brown or black leather options to suit different preferences or aesthetic choices.
