Description

4 PM chaise longue by Massproductions surprises with its unusual material: the chair is entirely made of an American cherry tree. The combination of curved and flat parts makes the chaise longue unexpectedly comfortable. The horizontal footrest of the divan not only serves as a resting platform for tired legs but also as a temporary seat or a handy tabletop.

The unusual chaise longue is striking in the living room, but is also ideal for public spaces, as apart from the main support it has no upholstery to wear out in use and eventually needs replacing. The headrest of the 4 PM chaise longue is made of leather and is adjustable in height.

Chris Martin

The British designer Chris Martin moved to Stockholm to do freelance work for IKEA. However, Martin wanted to change his work to a more sustainable and quality-driven direction, so that there would be fewer filters between him and the final product. He met the Swedish designer Magnus Elebäck and together they founded the furniture company Massproductions in 2009.

For Massproductions, Martin designs products in a traditional Nordic way, without forgetting to add in elements from other cultures, as well. His design work is characterised by his ability to unite functionality with an innovative, even artistic appearance. In 2020, Martin was awarded with the prestigious Bruno Mathsson Prize.
