Folk is a mercurial but modest family of chair, stool and table designed for Allermuir by PearsonLloyd. Folk is both timeless in its seemingly familiar design, and timely in its modest and ingenious flexibility. Available in a range of wood, plastic and metal finishes, different colours and upholstery options allow you to change Folk’s flavour so that it can appear like a range of different chairs that somehow sit together harmoniously in one space. It is flat pack – no glue – assembly and minimised usage of sustainable materials make it a meaningful contribution to ward an over production.

Founded in 1997 and led by Luke Pearson and Tom Lloyd, the studio works with manufacturers, brands and public bodies to identify and build products, spaces and services that respond to the challenges of the day and enhance our experience of the world.
