Ginkgo lounge chair by Anne-Mette Bartholin and Morten Ernst for Cozmo

The Ginkgo lounge chair, designed by Anne-Mette Bartholin and Morten Ernst for Cozmo, merges material economy with a sculptural form.

The chair, originally conceived in the early 2000s, has been updated by Bartholin and Cozmo over two years, focusing on proportion, construction, and comfort engineering.

Named for its resemblance to a ginkgo leaf, the chair features a moulded plywood seat shell in oak or walnut, supported by a slender, three-legged tubular steel frame.

An easily removable upholstered cushion adds to the chair's lightweight and stackable design.

Bartholin describes the chair as having a poetic and embracing character, with a simple yet expressive construction where each part serves a clear purpose.

The design's generous proportions and curved shell are intended to invite relaxation while creating a subtle dynamic tension.
