Folk

Folk is a mercurial, but modest family of chair, stool and table designed for Allermuir by PearsonLloyd.

Folk is both timeless in its seemingly familiar design, and timely in its modest and ingenious flexibility.

A range of wood, plastic and metal finishes, different colors and upholstery options allow you to change Folk’s flavour so that it can appear like a range of different chairs that somehow sit together harmoniously in one space. It’s flat pack - no glue - assembly and minimised usage of sustainable materials make it a meaningful contribution to ward an over production.
