Archetyp Lobby is a functional, simple and straightforward lobby chair. The dimensions and shapes give an idea of a chair pared to the bare minimum with subtle refinement. The upholstered seat and back give good support for long-term seating. Archetyp is totally new, and at the same time familiar to the eye.
“In updating this well-known archetype of upholstered armchair with wooden frame, we’ve tried to lighten the structure and give it the appearance of something both familiar and simultaneously fresh and of its time. Nikari’s reputation for faultless craftsmanship allows the design to transcend ordinary everyday character, giving the design the edge it needs to perform in well-thought architectural surroundings.” — Jasper Morrison, 2024

DESIGNED BY
Jasper Morrison
Jasper Morrison (London, 1959) is one of the most renowned industrial designers of recent times. Son of a publicist and a chef’s assistant, Morrison became interested in design thanks to his uncle Terence Conrad, creator of Habitat, The Conran Shop and the Design Museum in London, who introduced him to the furniture of Eileen Grey in late 70s, which inspired his work forever. His career was also strongly influenced by his grandfather, who worked for a Danish firm and has a studio at home where Morrison spent much of his time.
