A circular lounge chair rarely feels commanding. But Bonaldo’s Globalove by Karim Rashid is anything but soft-spoken.

Winner of the 2025 Prize Designs for Modern Furniture and Lighting, this sculptural seat draws focus in any setting.

Part cocoon, part capsule, Globalove is built from a thick band of continuous upholstered form. It grounds and levitates at once.

The chair rests directly on the floor yet feels in orbit. Its asymmetrical tilt suggests motion, even when still.

Every curve carries Rashid’s signature. Contrasting materials heighten the tension between clean precision and deep comfort.

Despite its bold form, Globalove plays well in commercial spaces. Think gallery lounges, boutique hotels, or retail concept stores.

The round shape encourages conversation. The silhouette stands confidently on its own.

It’s rare to find a lounge chair that balances ergonomics and drama. Globalove manages both—without compromise.
