Quick Links

Clean lines and a simple structure define the design of Chair 65. A low, rectangular backrest is formed from a single piece of birch plywood and has a slight curve that forms naturally to the back, offering comfort and support. The height of the backrest allows for the chair to be pushed under a table or desk. The distinctive circular seat and L-shaped legs are part of Alvar Aalto’s standardised system of components. Available in a variety of colours and finishes, Chair 65 also has a smaller sibling, Children’s Chair NE65, which is suitable for children.
