Designed for Studio TK by acclaimed French designer Patrick Norguet, the Ballad Collection is characterized as “pure, a simple form with nice details and a touch of character.” Consisting of the Ballad Upholstered Lounge Chair, Ballad Upholstered Stool, Ballad Plastic Chair, and Ballad Plastic Stool, each piece in the collection invites comfort through a user-centered experience aligned with modern workplace values.
The Ballad Upholstered Lounge Chair effortlessly balances comfort, authenticity, and refined design. Created with a lifestyle-first approach to the workplace, Ballad supports moments of reflection, conversation, and calm in both collaborative and private settings.
Ballad Work Chairs and Ballad Stools provide a versatile range of seating solutions thoughtfully crafted to bring comfort, character, and flexibility to today’s evolving workplaces. These seating options extend the collection’s design language across a wide range of environments.
True to its clean, minimal aesthetic, the Ballad Work Chair is offered with or without arms and can be specified in six base options—ranging from powder-coated metal to warm wood finishes—providing a high degree of adaptability for meeting rooms, training spaces, cafés, and private offices.
Ballad Stools bring this same sense of intentional design to elevated seating. Offered in bar and counter heights, stool models are available with a sleek sled base or a four-star swivel base to support social or task-oriented settings.
Chairs and stools come in fully upholstered styles or with a molded seat shell made of recycled polypropylene, available in five durable finishes. For added comfort and visual expression, shells can be upgraded with an upholstered seat or a combination of seat and back upholstery, allowing designers to create compositions tailored to each space’s function and tone.
