Havn Lænestol, Stjernebase

The angled backrest on this one actually supports my lower back during long reading sessions, which I didn't expect from a lounge chair. And the swivel base is smooth enough that I can turn toward the window without scooting the whole thing around.

I've been working from this chair for two months and the swivel base is what sold me — I can turn to my bookshelf without getting up. The shell is wide enough that I can sit cross-legged, which almost never happens with lounge chairs.

The angled backrest really does cradle you—last night I spent two hours reading with a glass of wine and forgot to swivel even once. The star base glides so smoothly that a gentle nudge sends me into a slow spin, which feels oddly calming after a long workday.
