‘It has such a strong aerodynamic feel that it could be an aircraft or a Formula One racing car.’
Corinne Julius, in the Evening Standard

Conceived as a single, sweeping curve, the Slice chaise lounge comprises a contouring backrest that arcs forward to support the legs and feet. Crafted in 99 individual layers, regular spaces between each allows the eye to travel far beyond the chaise’s structure. As with the aluminium Slice chair, Bengtsson used transparency as a device to deconstruct the conventional parts of a chaise lounge. Bengtsson's technique makes every aspect of the chaise visible in a single glance, and breaks down the density of its immense surface area.

Slice Chaise lounge was acquired by the Röhsska Museum, Sweden.
