Work meets lounge with the Avalon chaise.

Designed by Union Design, the sculpted forms of the chaise allow your body to be fully reclined for lounging while keeping your head in an actively engaged position.

Avalon becomes your private space where you can focus on getting work done or simply relax in between meetings.

The split forms of the seat and back are designed from the need for the product to break down into as small a box as possible.

This creates an interesting look of two bent planes of upholstery coming together in a floating connection, creating a feeling of lightness.

Further emphasizing this sense of lightness is the soft 3D knit upholstery combined with the thin metal frame structure.

The Avalon chaise can be used on its own or paired with accessories to enhance the work/lounge experience.

Easily clamped onto the chaise, you can choose to add a swivel table and/or privacy screen with a coat hook and side table.

The swivel table features a device stand perfect for working on phones or tablets.

The privacy screen, covered in 3D knit upholstery, creates a personal workspace furnished with a coat hook and side table, perfect for storing your bag or holding that important cup of coffee while you work.
