New Works Covent Lounge Chair

A low, fully upholstered lounge chair with no exposed legs or hardware. The base is wrapped in upholstery, continuous from seat through back to the floor. By New Works.

The New Works Covent Lounge Chair is built on a solid wood internal frame. The upholstery runs as one unbroken surface from the seat through the curved back and down across the base. No legs, frame edges, or hardware break the silhouette. The chair reads as a single soft volume on the floor. The low stance holds a horizontal profile while keeping the seat deep and the back supportive.

Fixed or auto-return swivel base

Available with a fixed base or a swivel base that rotates and returns to the center facing position after use. Both versions keep the base fully upholstered, so the swivel mechanism stays concealed within the wrapped form with no visible hardware at floor level.

• Fully Upholstered Curved Frame – The frame is upholstered continuously from seat to armrest without visible structural interruption, creating a smooth, enclosing form that reads as a single surface rather than separate upholstered panels joined at seams.
• Low-Profile Stance – The chair sits close to the floor, producing a relaxed, reclined posture suited to informal living spaces — the low stance also makes the chair read as less dominant in a room than a higher-backed lounge chair of equivalent width.
• Solid Wood Internal Structure – The hardwood frame provides a stable, load-bearing core that maintains the chair's curved profile under sustained weight without the frame flex that can develop in sofas and chairs with lesser internal construction.
• Fixed or Swivel Return Base Options – The swivel return mechanism rotates the chair freely and brings it back to center position when released — a functional advantage in rooms where the chair is used to orient toward multiple points without leaving it off-angle when unoccupied.
• Multiple Upholstery Options – Available across a range of fabric categories, allowing the chair to be specified in a textile that coordinates with existing room upholstery without custom ordering.
• Designed and Made in Denmark – New Works produces the Covent seating range in Denmark, where close oversight of upholstery finishing and frame construction maintains the quality of the curved form across production runs.
