Airports present a unique challenge in regards to furniture. Waiting areas and lounges in airports are typically very minimalist, meaning the furniture ends up being the focal point of an area. The furniture itself needs to be able to seat many people, but also be comfortable for those who have a long time to wait. It must be compact, but not cramped.
sohoConcept provides modern airport furniture to lounges and airports around the world. Our sleek, comfortable, contemporary designs are perfect for large waiting areas and exclusive airport lounges.
Airport Seating
Whether at the departure gate, arrival gate, restaurants, or public waiting areas, airport seating needs to be comfortable and fit with the décor of the airport.
More understated and simple chairs, like our Soho Metal Chair, Polo Sled Chair, or Pasha Sled Chair, are perfect for weary travelers or people waiting to pick someone up at the airport. They can easily fit together to provide seating for hundreds of people at a gate. These styles are also available in a variety of materials and colours to match with the look of the airport. They are easy to keep clean and can handle heavy use.
For a food court or eating area, the Nevada Sled chairs are very simple, compact, and comfortable. They can easily be placed along a wall or around a table. Their light weight makes them easy to move around and rearrange to accommodate large or small parties.
Many modern airport waiting areas now feature bar tables as well as low tables for guests to sit at. Wire bar stools are the perfect match for these, like sohoConcept’s Dallas Wire Stool or Lara Wire Stool. The metal base of these gives them a modern feel while ensuring their light weight makes them easy to move and clean.
Airport Lounge Furniture
In airport lounges, the furniture still needs to be understated, but can be a little more lavish and spaced out than in a general waiting area.
Chairs like the Chelsea Sled chair or Nova Metal chair are perfect for lining up against a wall or placing around a table for last minute meetings or solo travelers. They provide comfort while still being compact and simple.
Many airport lounges also feature armchairs and sofas. These sofas need to look professional and be easy to maintain while still providing comfort for the travelers. Our Istanbul Sectional sofa, Sofa, and Armchair can all be used together to create a gathering space and place to relax for large groups. The Taxim Sectional Sofa is available in many different colours and materials and its cushions exude elegance. These are perfect for relaxing in upscale lounges before a flight. Lastly, the California Armchair is perfect for either getting some last minute work done before the business trip, or taking a nap on your way home from vacation.
Tables
Having modern tables in an airport lounge or waiting area is also necessary to allow people to unwind on their computers or keep their coffee cups. sohoConcept designs a variety of tables that are perfect for any application at an airport.
Both our Calvin and Diana series are available in marble, glass, and wood. Depending on the décor of the airport, any of these will be suitable. Paired with our chairs or armchairs mentioned above, these tables become the perfect place for travelers to relax or work.
For something more relaxed, our Island Coffee Table provides a great place for a few people to relax and talk over a meal or a drink.
sohoConcept manufactures a variety of modern airport furniture for both lounge areas and waiting areas. No matter the décor, sohoConcept has a design and furniture to fit it. Chairs, sofas, bar stools, and tables are all great options, when used together, for creating a comfortable, understated, and modern airport.
