Structure & Frame :

The Keel Light lounge armchair is part of an expansion of the Keel family, developed from a deep architectural study into the relationship between geometric rigor and organic sinuosity. Its frame is composed of a slender steel rod, available in embossed finishes like Anthracite or Aval. This metallic "skeleton" supports a backrest crafted from solid ash wood, which is sculpted through a specialized manufacturing process to achieve soft, fluid curves.

Top & Materials :

This model is distinguished by a padded seat filled with fire-retardant polyurethane foam. The hallmark of the "Light" version is the addition of a rigid underlying shell positioned beneath the seat. This shell is painted and embossed in the exact same color and texture as the metal structure, creating a unified material transition that draws direct inspiration from the nautical world.

Shelves & Storage :

Focused on providing a sense of "sophisticated lightness," the 922/LMB prioritizes ergonomic relaxation and visual transparency over utility features. The inclusion of the under-seat shell allows for a more streamlined and finished look compared to fully upholstered models, making the chair appear as a singular, integrated industrial sculpture.

Design & Aesthetic :

Designed by M+V, the Keel Light lounge armchair embodies an equilibrium between cold industrial materials and the warm, "living" material of solid wood. The name "Keel" refers to the backbone of a ship, a metaphor for the structural stability and balance achieved by the way the wooden elements "embrace" the thin metal rods.

Functionality & Placement :

This armchair is intended for indoor residential and contract lounge environments. Its low, enveloping profile and refined finishes make it an ideal choice for luxury hotel lobbies, executive waiting areas, or high-end living rooms. For those seeking a cohesive indoor-outdoor transition, the collection is also available in an outdoor version crafted in solid Iroko wood.

Finishes & Customization :

The armchair offers a high level of "sartorial" customization. The solid ash backrest can be stained in various finishes (such as Moka, Carbon, or Walnut), while the metal frame and shell are finished in matching embossed paints. The seat can be upholstered in a wide selection of premium fabrics or leathers from the Potocco catalog.

Dimensions & Configuration :

Model 922/LMB features a width of 67.5 cm, a depth of 61 cm, and a seat height of 41 cm. It is part of a complete family that includes dining chairs, armchairs, and stools, enabling a unified design story across different functional zones of a project.
