What Is The Womb Chair?
The Womb Chair is quite literally named after its structure. Its creator Saarinen intended to mimic the shape of a womb. It was designed on the theory that a great number of people have never really felt comfortable and secure since they left the womb.

Who Created The Womb Chair?
Eero Saarinen, a Finnish-born American architect, led the experiential nature of furniture design in the 1950s. As a designer, Saarinen vowed to challenge the structural and aesthetic problems of a chair. Following his award-winning partnership for a molded plywood chair with Charles Eames, he created the Womb Chair.

What’s Special About The Womb Chair?
Created in 1946, the Womb Chair reinvented the idea of comfort. Saarinen carried out Florence Knoll’s request of creating a chair that resembled “a basket full of pillows.” The chair’s unique design accommodates any type of sitting posture paired with perfectly heightened armrests. This mid-century piece is adaptable to almost any space whether it be in the home, office, or elsewhere. In the years following its release, Knoll created an accompanying ottoman for maximum comfort.
