Take a Line for a Walk Revolving Armchair
Made by Moroso
Designed by Alfredo Haberli
Alfredo Häberli named this armchair after a phrase Paul Klee used to describe drawing: an act of intuition, energy, and controlled freedom. The form follows that idea. Its enveloping profile reads as a single, continuous gesture, graphic from a distance and inviting up close.
The revolving base introduces a quiet fluidity, allowing the chair to turn with the inhabitant rather than against them. It is a detail that shifts the experience from static to conversational, well suited to reading corners, private offices, and considered hospitality interiors.

Häberli's practice moves between industrial design, interiors, and exhibition-making, and his work consistently privileges sensory precision over formal excess. This chair is a clear expression of that sensibility: confident in silhouette, restrained in ornament.
