Aura, designed by Danish studio Norm Architects, was created to be more than just a chair around a table. From the outset, the design was conceived as an integral part of a communal setting: an element capable of contributing to the atmosphere of the space and strengthening the sense of togetherness among those gathered around the table.
The design focuses on striking a balance between openness and protection. The backrest naturally envelops the body, offering comfort and a sense of intimacy, without appearing visually heavy or overpowering. The armchair thus maintains a light presence in the space, whilst providing generous and welcoming support.
Aura is designed to accommodate different ways of sitting over time. You can lean forward during a conversation or adopt a more relaxed posture: the seat supports both positions without imposing a rigid stance. This design flexibility makes it particularly suitable for settings where people spend long periods around a table, such as dining areas, meeting rooms and hospitality spaces.

The chair features a solid wood frame. The seat and backrest, which have a plywood core, are padded with polyurethane foam to ensure maximum comfort. Both are upholstered in fabric. The chair has polypropylene feet.

The balanced proportions and soft lines define a minimalist, contemporary aesthetic, consistent with a design philosophy that places the user experience at the heart of everything. The attention to detail and the quality of the finishes help to create a chair that interacts with the interior architecture in a discreet yet recognisable way. Aura reinterprets the designer dining chair with a sensitive and functional approach, bringing a more domestic and tactile dimension to shared spaces.


Whether for lunches, meetings or informal get-togethers, this chair helps to create a calm, natural and authentic experience, where comfort and connection become an integral part of the design. Designed for contemporary contract, hospitality and workplace settings, Aura combines visual lightness, enveloping comfort and versatility. A chair that enhances moments of togetherness and helps to create welcoming, cohesive and deeply human spaces.
