Cappellini Lounge Chair Luce

A lounge chair for considered workplace spaces

Cappellini Luce is a two-model lounge chair family designed by Patricia Urquiola in 2022. Its armchairs suit settings where a more relaxed seat is useful, such as reception areas, informal meeting zones and shared spaces. The collection may also work in hospitality interiors that need lounge seating rather than an adjustable task chair.

Both versions have fixed armrests and are not height-adjustable. Consider Luce when you want a defined lounge seat and can select a suitable position for it within the room.

Choose between a wood base and a swivel base

The Luce Armchair has a wood base and is available in fabric or leather upholstery. The Luce Swivel Armchair pairs fabric upholstery with a metal base and a swivel function. The choice is therefore less about different chair sizes and more about the base, upholstery and movement that suit the space.

For a more stationary arrangement, compare the wood-base version; where swivel movement is useful, consider the metal-base model. Check the individual product details for the options available on each chair.

Where Cappellini Luce can work

Luce is intended for lounge seating rather than a workstation that calls for adjustable support. In an office, it can furnish a reception area, a private conversation corner or a break space where visitors and employees need a place to sit. In a meeting area, it can provide an alternative to conventional conference seating for less formal discussions. The same distinction can help when planning hospitality interiors: use the collection where a lounge chair suits the intended activity and the room layout.

Allow enough room around the chair for people to sit down and stand up comfortably. If you are considering the swivel model, also account for the space needed for the chair to turn. As neither model has listed seat-height, back-height or seat-depth adjustment, choose the position and surrounding furniture with the intended users in mind.

How to choose between the two Luce models

Compare base and upholstery

The Luce Armchair combines a wood base with fabric or leather upholstery. It is the option to investigate if leather is important to your specification, or if a wood base suits the interior. The Luce Swivel Armchair has a metal base and fabric upholstery, offering swivel movement. The collection attributes list black, beige, silver and white as base colors; confirm which colors are offered with your selected model before finalizing a scheme.

Match the chair to its use

Think about how people will use the seat. For a fixed lounge position, the wood-base armchair may be the natural starting point. If people would benefit from turning while seated, compare the swivel armchair. Both have fixed armrests, so factor their form into the room plan and consider whether the armrests suit the way the chair will be approached and used.

What to check before leasing

Confirm the exact upholstery and base choices for the model you are considering, along with the dimensions and any other product details needed for your project. The listed maximum load is 135 kg, and the listed warranty is two years. Origin is available on request. If several chairs are being specified, check that the chosen finishes and model combinations work together across the space.
