Dark grey linen, the back curving round into both arms in one line — the Pebble Wraparound Linen Armchair takes the corner of a room that gets a lamp rather than a screen. Dark cloth keeps its own record: lint, dust and hair sit on the surface where a pale weave swallows them, so a clothes brush ends up living in the same room.

The seat is 43cm off the floor, under the top of your kneecap when you stand beside it, so you do not lower yourself onto this chair so much as drop the last of the way. What comes back is the floor: a mug set down in front of you is still in reach from the seat, and so is the book beside your foot.

There is nothing above your shoulder blades here. The Laze Corduroy Armchair keeps a seat as low as this one and puts a back behind your shoulders.
