Product Description

Eero Sarineen’s Womb Settee channels the spirit of the master’s classic Womb Chair. The double-wide version of the chair was designed in 1948 for use in his landmark Warren, MI General Motors Technical Center, Saarinen’s first major commission. The form, achieved through sculpted resin, leveraged the technical expertise of Hudson Winner, a boat maker who worked with Saarinen and Florence Knoll to prototype many of the architect’s early designs. Knoll approached the original design with the benefit of updated molding techniques and materials, reintroducing the Model 73 Womb Settee after six decades.

Designer

Eero Saarinen

Eero Saarinen was a Finnish-American architect and designer known for his sculptural approach to modern design. Working closely with Knoll, he created iconic furniture such as the Tulip Chair and Saarinen Dining Table, which eliminated the “slum of legs” beneath tables and chairs. Saarinen also designed landmark buildings including the Gateway Arch and the TWA Flight Center, leaving a lasting impact on both architecture and furniture design. See more

The Womb Chair At 75

The Knoll Womb Chair has an enveloping form that continues to be one of the most celebrated and recognized representations of midcentury organic modernism. By applying foam molded over a fiberglass shell, Saarinen created a single-piece form that perfectly facilitates a relaxed sitting posture.
