The Zephyr Lounger was designed by Charles Wilson for Australian outdoor furniture manufacture Tait. Wilson created the chair in reference to the sailing term when a yacht catches a gentle breeze. The chair is thus designed for ultimate outdoor relaxation, boasting an ergonomic structure.
The designer's distinctive fluid forms are represented through the Zephyr Longer's seat and backrest, creating a sial-like form that frames the user's back comfortably. The design concept was driven by the exploration o creating a modern sling-style lounger comparable to the classic camping chairs. Moreover, the chair's elevated, ergonomic comfort boasts a slight recline to support the lower back and upper neck. Zephyr is complete with stainless steel armrests, providing support for users who might require assistance standing up from the chair.
