Burra is a sculptural lounge chair with a characteristic soft expression. The rounded seat is fitted with a swivel function with the possibility of an optional return swivel function for additional mobility. Burra is crafted for maximum comfort. Inside, a steel reinforcement structure provides stability and strength, while a combination of elastic bands, hard molded foam and soft molded foam ensures soft seating comfort.
Textile: Clean with textile or upholstery cleaner. Leather: Clean with a damp cloth. Use warm water with soap flakes. Frequent vacuuming with a soft fitting is recommended for both textile and leather to preserve color and appearance.
Correct care and maintenance is important in preserving a product’s attributes and appearance. Please see our related guide for further recommendations.
Burra Collection
A visually characteristic design, the Burra collection demanded an equally characteristic name. Short for burrata, the round and famously soft Italian cheese, Burra invites you into its enveloping embrace with its exceptionally comfortable seat and pleasant aesthetic. As implied by its name, the design is a study in softness. Distinguished by its accentuated round seat and enveloping back and armrest, the plump design offers meticulous seating comfort while the charismatic appearance makes a compelling impact in any setting.
Alongside the burrata-inspired seat, one of the Burra collection’s main character traits is the distinctive, curved backrest that naturally evolves into armrests. Every element of the design alludes to its softness. Both dining and lounge chair variants are clad in full upholstery, while the design idiom consists of rounded, organic lines that melt together. The result is two bold, sculptural designs with their own unique expression. With their unusually plump dimensions and charismatic silhouette, the Burra Chair and Burra Lounge Chair transcend traditional furniture, making them statement pieces that add both functionality and artistic flair to any interior.

Simon Legald graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in the summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products. Simon's designs are often created in a dialogue between craftsmanship and industry. He also likes to incorporate the techniques that are necessary for the structure of a product into the design by highlighting them visually.
"Honesty is what makes a product understandable and is what describes the products functionality. If you understand the product, it does not need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore, it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects and makes them trustworthy. In my design, I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression."
