About our Work

The SWIVEL BASE Occasional Chair by McGregor presents a study in playful sophistication—an exploration of proportion, craft, and intuitive comfort. Designed around an expressive base of oversized solid-wood dowel legs, the chair’s silhouette feels both grounded and animated, as though the structure were poised for movement. These generous timber elements connect seamlessly into a sculpted L-shaped spine, a beautifully carved central junction that anchors the seat and back with quiet precision. Resting above this architectural core, the upholstered seat pan and gently curved backrest offer a soft, tailored contrast, delivering exceptional comfort without sacrificing visual clarity. The swivel mechanism—cleanly integrated and intentionally hidden—provides fluid, responsive motion, making the chair as functional as it is sculptural. With its inviting tactility, honest materials, and charmingly bold proportions, the SWIVEL BASE Occasional Chair embodies McGregor’s signature ability to merge character with refinement, creating a piece that feels at once contemporary, warm, and remarkably alive.
