Model 36 Lounge Chair was the first chair designed by Bruno Mathsson purely for relaxation. In the spring of 1934 Bruno Mathsson had discovered a newly marketed casein type glue (one based on phosphoproteins) that did not require heat but only the application of pressure to provide a sufficiently strong bond. It was this discovery that led Mathsson to experiment using laminated beech to construct frames strong enough to hold the woven hemp at what ever angle he judged necessary to provide good ergomomic support.
