Pyramid, Karim Rashid’s newest lounge chair for Nienkämper, borrows a monumental form from ancient Egypt and stands it on its head. What’s the point? According to Rashid, an inverted pyramid reflects who he is and symbolizes his hopes for the shape of things to come. Arrestingly sculptural as well as comfortable, Pyramid’s design is achieved with environmentally responsible materials, including FSC-certified laminated wood products and soy-based foam. By inverting a form associated with ancient history, Rashid has created a chair that belongs to a future of exciting possibilities.
