Armchair Carl

Armchair Carl – Where sculptural boldness meets luxurious ease.

Armchair Carl is a masterful expression of soft architecture, an inviting seat defined by its sweeping curves, generous proportions, and seamless silhouette. Its form is bold, its gesture fluid, and its comfort instantly apparent.

Whether used as a statement piece in a living room, a quiet retreat in a bedroom, or a focal point in a hospitality space, Carl offers a grounded yet elegant presence that invites the body to rest and the mind to slow.

Soft Geometry, Strong Design

Carl’s strength lies in its shape, enveloping, curved, and uninterrupted. The arms and back flow together as a continuous form, embracing the sitter in a sculptural hug. Its low, generous seat and subtly reclined posture speak of leisure, while the clean lines give it architectural credibility.

Though voluminous in silhouette, Carl retains a visual lightness thanks to its perfectly balanced proportions and low, grounded base.

Engineered Comfort Beneath the Surface

More than a visual icon, Carl is built to be lived in. Its internal frame, constructed from solid wood and structural plywood, provides strength and stability. The seat and back are layered with variable-density polyurethane and memory foam, combining long-term resilience with a soft, cradling feel.

This makes Carl equally suited for brief moments of pause or hours of immersive comfort. It’s the kind of chair you sink into, but never struggle to rise from, a harmony of support and softness.

Upholstery That Complements the Silhouette

Fully upholstered from head to toe, Armchair Carl comes to life in luxurious textiles that follow its sculptural lines with precision. Our in-stock fabric selection includes rich bouclés, brushed wools, soft-touch velvets, and performance blends, each selected to elevate the form and withstand everyday use.

For a more tailored approach, Carl is also available in COM (Customer’s Own Material), with studio support available for custom detailing, contrasting textiles, or tonal schemes to match your space.

Ideal for Interiors That Speak With Confidence

Carl is designed for environments where form matters as much as comfort:

• Modern lounges and spacious living rooms

• Boutique hotel suites and hospitality lounges

• Contemporary dressing areas or design-led office settings

• Architectural interiors in need of soft focal points

Set on a subtly finished metal base, Carl is discreetly elevated, adding a sense of lift without distracting from the sculptural form.

Part of the Cornelius Modern Collection

Carl is part of the Cornelius Modern Collection, a line defined by sculptural integrity, emotional functionality, and timeless appeal. Each piece in the collection is built to offer not only visual clarity, but daily comfort, the kind of furniture that becomes essential through use, not trend.

With its smooth curves and structured core, Carl perfectly reflects this design ethos: bold, refined, and quietly magnetic.
