Karelia by Zanotta is a non-conformist pop icon designed by Liisi Beckmann in 1966, celebrated for its wave-like surface and radical frameless construction. Inspired by the bays and gulfs of the designer's Finnish homeland, the armchair expresses freedom, softness, and sculptural energy with a distinctly 1960s spirit.

Made entirely of polyurethane foam, Karelia replaces traditional structure with a continuous upholstered form that supports the body through volume and contour. The new fabric covering updates the original language for contemporary interiors, making Karelia a bold lounge chair for living rooms, creative spaces, and design-focused environments.
