Uku lounge chair by Simon Pengelly for Allermuir

Dezeen Showroom: designer Simon Pengelly drew on "subtle Scandinavian influence" when creating Uku, a smooth timber lounge chair made for furniture brand Allermuir.

Uku features a slender timber frame, which cradles soft upholstery in a selection of neutral hues.

Available in mid- or high-back variations, the chair comes in either natural oak or black-stained oak.

"I wanted the design to possess a subtle Scandinavian influence where the honest, tactile, warm and familiar characteristics of wood are quietly abundant," said Pengelly.

Allermuir explained that Uku was created with a deliberately pared-back design so that the furniture can "elegantly fit into any setting".

"The chair was designed to be harmonious and balanced, with no individual feature being the main protagonist," said the brand.
