Design and Comfort

Alden has been designed for everyday moments that deserve exceptional comfort. Its upholstered seat and back are crafted from plywood and supportive polyether foam, creating a soft yet well-structured feel that provides lasting comfort during long dinners, relaxed conversations and quiet moments around the table.

The gently contoured back supports the body naturally, while the integrated armrests provide additional comfort without making the design feel heavy or imposing. The result is a chair that feels welcoming and supportive while maintaining a clean, elegant silhouette.

The frame combines oak timber and plywood to provide stability and strength, while introducing the warmth and natural beauty of wood. The contrast between the tactile upholstery and the carefully finished timber creates a refined, understated look that works beautifully in both contemporary and more traditional settings.

The Atmosphere Alden Creates

Alden is made for the moments that bring people together: family meals, dinners with friends, morning coffee at the table and evenings spent in conversation.

Its softly upholstered form creates a feeling of comfort and ease, while its balanced proportions allow it to sit naturally within the room. Alden does not demand attention. Instead, it enhances the atmosphere with a quiet sense of luxury and considered design.

Soft yet structured, elegant yet relaxed, Alden brings lasting comfort and understated character to the dining space.
