Design Classic 989 Chair

Designed by Milo Baughman

Originally designed in 1968, the 989 is a timeless classic of the modern era. This visually arresting chair features an upholstered cube that seems to float inside an angular, flat-bar metal frame. With its inviting thick, loose cushions, the 989 lounge chair combines big comfort with glamorous profiles from all angles. The 989 is affectionately known as the “T-back” chair, as its exposed metal frame forms a "T" when viewed from the rear. Select from any of our in-house curated fabrics or leathers for upholstery. 

This piece can be made custom with a COM fabric and the frame can come in other metal finishes. Please reach out to discuss details and pricing - email hello@forsythart.com.
