Morton
Morton
Morton is a statement – a deft blend of elegant upholstered chair and armchair that holds its own both at a dining table or in a boardroom. One striking feature of this lightweight item of furniture is the precisely executed two-part upholstery of the backrest, which quietly envelops the body. The subtle suspension mechanism in the backrest pleasantly accentuates the movements of the person sitting in the piece. The seat comprises a pocket-spring core to ensure exceptional seating comfort.
Flexible in terms of colours and coverings, the surface complements the individual character of the design. Herkner, who loves to play with different materials, also enjoys placing the focus on subtle details such as the crossmember in the base of the seat. Wittmann’s know-how enables the designer to come up with highly intuitive shapes and formulate precise seam patterns. In the case of MORTON, material, finish and the combination of leather and fabric are decisive. And this is where exceptional hand-craftsmanship comes into its own. In addition to the version with wooden legs, the chair is available in an elegantly casual, powder-coated metal finish. The latter variant is also available with a swivel mechanism for anyone who wants to be more communicative. An option that is particularly welcome at the conference table.
There are moments and situations that call for a firm commitment to the idea that more is more. When enjoying good food, the celebration of table culture takes on particular importance, as does the presence of beautiful things both on and around the table. The fine dining version of MORTON represents more of everything: more seat depth, more seat width, more seating quality. Identical in design to the other members of the MORTON family, with a pocket-spring core and a layered polymousse structure, the fine dining chair is painstakingly handcrafted with the highest quality upholstery material. The sweeping backrest arcs far forward, segueing gently into an armrest. Relaxed and, above all, lengthy and extremely comfortable seating experiences are a given. Like the MORTON Chair, the fine dining version is also available with wooden legs or – for aesthetic lightness – with black grey powder-coated metal legs and swivel mechanism.
