Artek Armchair 42 Lounge Chair
Manufacturer: Artek | Designer: Alvar Aalto, 1932
Armchair 42 — known as the Small Paimio — shares its DNA with the Armchair 41: the same form-bent birch lamella frame, the same single-piece seat shell of form-pressed plywood, the same split armrest construction that keeps the chair balanced as the wood moves over time. Where the 41 is a full lounge chair, the 42 is more compact — a lower seat height and shallower depth make it better suited to smaller rooms or as a pair. The absence of straight lines gives it a fluidity that is rare in furniture of this period.
- Dimensions: Width: 60 cm × Depth: 75 cm × Height: 72 cm | Seat height: 36 cm
- Frame: Form-bent solid birch lamella
- Seat shell: Form-pressed birch plywood
