Patricia Urquiola’s Lavenham Executive for De Padova: Chairs and Armchairs
Our adoration for Patricia Urquiola and her design team just outdid themselves… again. But we’re all used to her eye for tactile expression by now, so another incredible design is just another check in our unconditional love category for the Spanish-born, Italian-living designer. In her latest seating system called the Lavenham Executive, of armchairs for both the home and contract markets, De Padova helps the simple beauty of an Urquiola chair find its home within yours.

The Quilted Chair Designs of the Lavenham Executive Seating System by Patricia Urquiola for De Padova
The supportive frame, or Chassis, is made from a solid Tech® polyurethane material that Urquiola softens with colorful, quilted fabric upholstery. The hard shell of the chairs come in your choice of either white or black, contrasting the warmth of the Lavenham chair that is available in fixed, 4 legs in oak-stained ash wood; swivel, 4 spokes; swivel, 5 spokes on wheels.
The fixed armchair comes in a matte finish with a base using a sturdy, powder-coated steel in white or black and with legs in an oak-stained ash wood that lead to plastic feet. If a swiveling armchair for a conference room or desk area is desired, the Lavenham Executive version comes with 4 or 5 spokes in white or black and in a thick, matte finish. Its base is in cast aluminum with a polished or white powder-coated finish atop rotating plastic casters. Each cushion comes with removable covers that are washable, and the expanded polyurethane padding sealed with a resin-treated velveteen that has a naturally slip-proof surface underneath its vibrant coloring.
Include a thick, diamond-quilted pattern in your next home or office project for a subtle, geometric feel that makes your heart and senses leap for Urquiolan joy.
