 Last Thoughts

Both one of these lounge chairs were so different and innovative when it comes to what was available at the time, it’s no wonder they’ve become so iconic. The organic shapes and clean lines make them versatile items that fit with ant design style. Nevertheless, we feel the Womb Chair replica beats the Barcelona Chair due to its comfort. 

Not only does it’s unique shape make it comfy, it’s soft wool upholstery also makes it inviting and cozy next to the cold Barcelona Chair. The womb shaped chair will definitely give any space a timeless and modern feel! Visit Barcelona Designs for a diverse catalog of lounge chairs.
