Designed in 1980 by Romuald Ferens for a competition at the Swiss furniture fair. The jury was enthusiastic about the unknown, multi-faceted design from Poland and the chair won the main prize. However, he was declared taboo in his homeland.

The imposition of martial law in Poland meant that production never went into series production. Today the Lotos chair proves that design knows no boundaries.

LOTOS chair received the Must Have Award in 2017.

Romuald Ferens was born in 1934, he studied wood technology in Poznan at the age of 19. Back then, it was the only way to develop his passion for design. The reason was the past of his politically imprisoned father, who belonged to the Polish anti-communist movement, which prevented R. Ferens from studying architecture at the art college in Wroclaw.

Despite the many awards and recognition in the industry, he was denied the official title of furniture designer by the communist state for years.

After long efforts and numerous products designed, the Ministry of Culture finally granted Romuald Ferens the official rights to practice designer profession in 1984.

The folding chair for the balcony and the apartment

The special thing about the LOTOS folding chair: it is a compromise between chair, deck chair and lounge chair. The wide seat impresses with the highest level of comfort, which by far exceeds that of simple chairs. The LOTOS folding chair is therefore not a choice for the kitchen or the dining table, but can successfully replace a typical upholstered armchair thanks to its ergonomic shape. The LOTOS is ideal for the balcony and the apartment: It can be used outside, e.g. as a foldable balcony chair, as well as inside.
