“Swoop Plywood Lounge Chair by Herman Miller. The exposed wood shell of the Swoop Plywood Lounge Chair is a subtle reference to the iconic designs of Charles and Ray Eames. The chairÕs armrests gently ÒswoopÓ into the seat to accommodate a variety of postures. A coordinating ottoman is available to further enhance its comfort. Any Which Way You Sit Brian Kane designed Swoop for the way people sit todayÑin a word, personally. Because there are no hard edges or 90-degree angles, the ÒswoopingÓ form created as the arms curve into the seat accommodates a variety of postures and positions: legs crossed, curled up, or settled in.
