Richter VR52 Lounge Chair
Design Vjenceslav Richter
Manufactured by Prostoria
The Richter VR52 Modern Lounge Chair is a distinctive expression of mid-century modern furniture design, combining architectural precision with an effortlessly lightweight silhouette. Originally conceived in 1952 by visionary Croatian architect and designer Vjenceslav Richter, this iconic design has been thoughtfully reintroduced for contemporary interiors.
Defined by its continuous tubular steel frame, the VR52 features ergonomically contoured plywood seating surfaces that introduce a surprising degree of flexibility and comfort. Its minimalist construction creates an open, airy appearance, making it an excellent choice for modern living rooms, boutique hotels, stylish reception areas, and thoughtfully designed hospitality spaces.
Available with a natural plywood seat or an upholstered seat option, the chair offers versatility without compromising its distinctive modernist character. Polished stainless steel and powder-coated frame finishes further expand its design possibilities.
More than a contemporary accent chair, the Richter VR52 is a celebration of structural clarity, timeless European design, and the enduring beauty of thoughtful simplicity.
