Our designers went to work. One of them, Marta Kuprińska, was guided by intuition. What she saw? Colours. “I wanted to be bold. For the lounge chair, I was even a bit of a rebel. As a grey prototype arrived from the factory, I secretly put on a bright blue cover and placed it in our design department. As people saw it, they felt yes, let’s do this!” “But if you’re not into blue, it’s available in dark grey too”, Marta adds, laughing.

Product details
The easy chair follows your movements during the match, which makes it more enjoyable since it feels like you’re part of the game.
The mesh material of the backrest lets air through, which is extra nice when a match drags on.
After an intense gaming session, you can gently rock the easy chair back and forth to unwind and relax.
Withstands many tough matches since the construction of carbon steel and mesh is very durable, hardwearing and retains its shape for a long time.
The simple yet elegant design attracts the eye and adds a charming detail to your home while making your gaming more comfortable – and more enjoyable.
Comfortable to sit on thanks to the body-shaped backrest that provides good support for the lower back.
The easy chair is lightweight and simple to move if you want to quickly set up a match with your friends.

Story
Ready for gaming – and everything else
Today, gaming takes place whenever, on different platforms, alone or together, and in different places of the home. With BRÄNNBOLL, we wanted to create a collection of furniture and accessories for this way of gaming – with a homey feel.
Philip Dilé, who works with product development, was part of investigating gamers’ new needs. His takeaway: these products must perform well for gaming and add to the experience, but they should also blend in nicely into the home when not used for gaming. Especially when gamers and non-gamers live together and there’s a lack of space. “That’s why the possibility to change activities easily is so important! It’s about two things, design and function,” says Philip. “Flexible, movable pieces are crucial, and looks too.”
Gaming doesn’t have to be all black
Just enough features
The BRÄNNBOLL collection is meant to do different things in the home. But it’s not about stuffing products with features. The trick is to find a balance. “Like the lounge chair, again. Use it as a normal armchair or lean back comfortably for a long gaming session. And with the castors it’s easy to rearrange your space when needed,” says Marta. You don’t have to be a gamer to use and love these products. Exactly who will use them, or exactly how – we don’t really know. “And that’s the beauty! I love it when people use our products in unexpected ways.”

“I was very inspired by the way people move when they play video games. Especially when they play racing games and follow the curves in the road or track. So I decided to create a chair that could move with the player. The result is BRÄNNBOLL gaming easy chair, where the seat moves both forwards, backwards and sideways. You sort of become at one with the easy chair, which makes the gaming experience even more immersive and fun."
