Perch combines its folded back with a gently sloping seat that extends outwards to form a leg rest, allowing for a variety of sitting positions.

"You can face forward and socialise or put up a leg, get into a corner, focus in on a book, and disconnect from your immediate preoccupations," explains Bradley Ferrada.

The chair is composed of bent tubular steel legs and a wooden frame, with foam padding upholstered in a felt-like fabric.
