Nelson Coconut Chair | Herman Miller

With its triangular cushion and rounded frame, the George Nelson Coconut Chair (1956) redefined what comfortable and attractive lounge seating could be. The secret is that the third corner — the one that forms the backrest — is slightly longer than those on the side, giving users extra support and wiggle room. While our version of the Coconut Lounge Chair remains true to the original design, we’re using a more sustainable polymer for the shell and have expanded the upholstery options.
