Artifort

F506

Designed 1985/2024

Inspired by modernist aesthetics, the mid-size F506 armchair harmonizes flowing curves with sleek lines, creating an invitingly generous and contemporary seating experience.

With its ergonomic silhouette, masterful craftsmanship and distinctive horizontal chanelling, this alluring swivel chair will transform any space into an oasis of style and sophistication. It’s no wonder that Artifort has decided to bring the F506 back into production in 2024, with a slight modification to its steel base.

While the F506 armchair was born in an age of artistic revolution, its design remains relevant and inspiring to this day. This masterpiece belongs to an inimitable series of furniture specifically created for Artifort by acclaimed designer Geoffrey D. Harcourt RDI during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. With his meticulous craftsmanship and groundbreaking vision, Harcourt used the same curved shell seat for various pieces, making comfortable yet businesslike furniture his trademark.

Designer

Geoffrey D. Harcourt (1935) trained at the Royal College of Art in London. In 1962, he designed his first series of small office fauteuils for Artifort. His designs introduced Artifort to the international market for contract design. In the beginning, Harcourt designed mostly seats for reception areas. His first design for Artifort, the 042 series in 1963, was an immediate international success. His philosophy is that the chair should focus on the person and not the other way around. “First the person, then the chair.” Harcourt has won many prizes and in 1978 was awarded the title of "Royal Designer for Industry".
