Ester Lounge, Pedrali lounge armchair designed by Patrick Jouin, wins the Best of Year Award as the best contract lounge seating. Promoted by the American magazine Interior Design and now in its 19th edition, the Best of Year Award is one of the most important prizes in the global design industry.

Ester Lounge maintains the elegance of the armchair presented in 2013, enhancing it with even softer and more generous shapes together with increased comfort. Ester Lounge is made of injected polyurethane foam with elastic belts. Proportions have been conceived to gracefully accommodate a wider, cosy seat, on which rests a comfortable cushion, and a backrest with a curved, enveloping design, while retaining the collection's distinctive identity. When designing the lounge, the characteristic oval shape of the backrest, which distinguishes the collection, has been emphasized. The curves of the backrest continue with the sinuous, enveloping forms of the armrests, ending on the floor with refined die-cast aluminium legs, encapsulating the attention to detail that is a feature of the entire collection.
