Swivel Lounge Chair Fjord by Patricia Urquiola Moroso

The Fjord armchair was designed in 2002 by Patricia Urquiola for Moroso, as part of a series inspired by the natural forms of eroded coastlines and smooth stones. Its name refers to the Norwegian fjords, where softness and sharpness coexist – a concept reflected in the chair’s flowing lines and gentle asymmetry.

This particular version is upholstered in a soft, rare shade of purple – a delicate, almost poetic tone that amplifies the chair’s sculptural presence. The colour enhances the organic silhouette and adds a quiet, distinctive elegance.

With its asymmetric backrest and integrated swivel base, the Fjord chair offers both comfort and playful function. Urquiola’s design approach is always human-centred: tactile, inviting, and focused on sensory experience.

The Fjord armchair is a clear example of contemporary design in which form, material, and use come together in harmony.
