Johanson has enjoyed many years of close collaboration with Johan Lindstén. Now we are proud to add Aston to the many other products in the Johanson range that already bear his name.

Aston is a slender stackable chair. Thanks to the understated elegance of its sleek lines, it can reflect different personalities through the choice fabric and colour of metal frame. The slender silhouette gives ASTON its lightness, while minor details such as the fastenings that connect the legs and back are hidden in the construction. Some inspiration for Aston has been borrowed from the classic Thonet café chair, whose design remains as practical and appealing today as it has always been. ASTON is the very epitome of design that seeks to minimise the number of components and use techniques such as 3D bending without compromising appearance or comfort in any way.

“With the ASTON series, we aimed to create furniture that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The Easy Chair version reinforces this ambition by offering a piece that combines lightness, comfort, and a distinct design identity,” says Johan Lindstén.

Johan Lindstén’s products are characterised by well-thought out design and unexpected details in a creative process that optimises function. Johan wants his designs to interact with their surroundings in a way that influences the mood of the user. He draws his inspiration from the most unlikely of sources, such as the lilac bush outside his home or the Ocean of Storms on the moon.
