ASTON – An ergonomic lightweight with a nod to the past, now available as an Easy Chair

The collaboration between Johan Lindstén and Johanson continues to bear fruit, as the popular AS- TON series expands with the much-anticipated Easy Chair. This new addition transforms the lightweight and clean design language of the original ASTON chair into a comfortable seating solution suitable for both public and private spaces.

Like its stackable counterpart, the ASTON Easy Chair is an ergonomic lightweight designed to adapt seamlessly to various styles depending on the choice of colors and fabrics. Its softly curved backrest and elegant frame, crafted using advanced 3D bending techniques, give the chair its characteristic profile and make it easy to move. The hidden fixings contribute to its clean and seamless aesthetic.

Inspired by the classic Thonet chairs yet with a clear modern twist, the ASTON series is a testament to how tradition and innovation can work in harmony. The Easy Chair adds another layer of comfort and versa- tility to the series, making it ideal for settings where relaxed conversations and longer seating moments take center stage.

“With the ASTON series, we aimed to create furniture that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The Easy Chair version reinforces this ambition by offer- ing a piece that combines lightness, comfort, and a distinct design identity,” says Johan Lindstén.

ASTON is manufactured by Johanson in Markaryd, where both upholstery and construction are carried out by skilled craftsmen. The high level of customi- zation available – from metal frame colors to fabric choices – allows the chair to be tailored to various en- vironments and needs, from playful and vibrant office landscapes to understated and elegant lounges.

With the addition of the Easy Chair, the ASTON series continues to evolve, solidifying its position as a versa- tile choice for design-conscious interior designers and end-users seeking both function and style.
