Burra Lounge Chair

Sculptural swivel lounge chair by Normann Copenhagen

The Burra Lounge Chair by Normann Copenhagen is a sculptural, fully upholstered chair designed by Simon Legald in 2023. Its rounded seat and enveloping back and armrest give reception areas, client lounges and informal meeting spaces a softer, more residential character.

Burra has a swivel seat, with an optional return-swivel mechanism that brings the chair back to its starting position. Inside, a steel reinforcement structure provides support. Elastic bands, hard moulded foam and soft moulded foam form the seat and back. The base uses FSC-certified wood and wood from other controlled sources.

The chair measures 950 mm wide, 795 mm deep and 725 mm high, with a seat height of 425 mm. Upholstery choices include selected textiles from Camira, Kvadrat and JAB, plus Sørensen Ultra leather. Each collection is offered in several colours, subject to current availability and suitability for the intended setting.

Use Burra as a single statement chair or arrange several chairs with an occasional table for informal conversations and one-to-one meetings. For a quotation, send one of our experienced project consultants the quantity, preferred upholstery and colour, swivel requirement, delivery address, access details and programme. We can also help plan clearances and coordinate the chairs with nearby tables and furniture.

How to specify the Burra Lounge Chair

Plan the setting

Burra measures 950 mm wide, 795 mm deep and 725 mm high, with a seat height of 425 mm. Allow space for the chair to swivel, for people to approach it and for circulation around nearby tables. A room plan helps us check quantities and clearances.

Choose the swivel action

A swivel function is standard. An optional return-swivel mechanism brings the chair back to its starting position after use. The return option can help keep chairs aligned in formal receptions and client-facing spaces.

Select the upholstery

The published upholstery range includes selected textiles from Camira, Kvadrat and JAB, plus Sørensen Ultra leather. Choose the colour, texture and performance level to suit the interior and expected use. Confirm the current fabric range and material suitability before ordering.

Coordinate the lounge setting

Burra can stand alone or be grouped around an occasional or coffee table. Consider sight lines, conversation distance and access to power where the setting will support informal meetings or laptop use.

Review care requirements

Textile covers should be vacuumed with a soft fitting and cleaned with a suitable upholstery cleaner. Leather can be wiped with a damp cloth using warm water and soap flakes. Follow the selected upholstery supplier's guidance for stains and deeper cleaning.

Prepare the quotation brief

Provide the quantity, room plan, preferred upholstery and colour, swivel requirement, delivery address, access details and programme. We will check the current options and prepare a project-specific quotation.
