Functionals | Miller chair

I love the graphic lines of the all black chair in front of the white wall and couldn’t be happier to be working with Dutch brand Functionals and their products for the coming months. Functionals is founded in 2009 by the two siblings Ad & Simon and I am a long time fan of their design. During last years Object Rotterdam, a showcase of contemporary furniture, I discovered their Miller chair and being a fan of sturdy leather and powder coated metal this chair was right up my alley!

The all black Miller Lounge chair totally fits the new plans I have for my home. Curious to know the how and why then read yesterday’s post The Masterplan 2.0 I have been looking for some time for the right chair and beside being a really comfortabel lounge chair I think the Miller adds some real coziness to my sitting area without taking up to much place as my living is not that big.

Made from the highest quality 5 mm thick German leather, and stitched and polished by a saddle maker the chair is available in cognac, natural, dark brown and black leather with an 18 mm sand powder-coated steel black or sand coloured frame. A layer of wood under the seat provides ‘shock absorption’. Next to the chair there is a matching footrest ‘Miller Ottoman’ and with the Miller chair being a real favourite they decided to create a new version with headrest, the all new Miller High!

I really loved reading Christoph Seyferth, the designer of the Miller chair was inspired by French designer Pierre Paulin and his leather butterfly chair for Artifort, I have actually been looking at that chair but the black Miller just really fits my home better!  The candle holders shown in the pictures are by Danish company Just Right who re-introduced the original Nagel candle holders by Werner Stoff. The beautiful carpet is part of the T-Fish collection by Caterina Frongia and handmade in Sardinia, soon more about them!
