Billiani Raquette 180 Lounge Chair Designed by Cristina Celestino

The Raquette 180 lounge chair by Billiani, designed by Cristina Celestino, combines structure and softness with a timeless yet modern feel. It draws inspiration from traditional woodworking and sports, giving it a unique visual character that fits contemporary interiors.

The chair is built using a frame of woven wooden slats, paired with wide, comfortable cushions inspired by natural shapes. The sides feature textured panels that echo the pattern of a tennis racket, adding rhythm and interest without extra decoration. Upholstery in fabric or leather softens the form, while carefully chosen wood finishes highlight the contrast between materials. The result is a chair that is both firm and comfortable, perfect for long hours in a reading corner, lounge, or study.

Design is simple and thoughtful. Layered details create depth without overwhelming the space, making the chair easy to place in modern or transitional interiors. With a variety of wood and upholstery options, Raquette can adapt to different rooms and styles, offering a calm, modern look rooted in careful craft and lasting comfort.
