F978 lounge chair, design by Geoffrey Harcourt for Artifort  While this lounge chair was designed by Geoffrey Harcourt in 1968 it was produced by Artifort starting in 2006.
The chair has a resistant polyurethane white or black shell with Super Buffex foam and Dacron upholstery.
The base is in glossy aluminum. Cover in leather or fabric in a variety of colors. 

The F978 is characterized by its simple, charismatic and austere appearance.
The aluminum base and the polyurethane shell are influenced from the Space Age trend in design and fashion during the late 60s while the leather seat adds a more classical and elegant touch. 

Geoffrey Harcourt was born in 1935 and graduated from the Royal College of Art in London.
In 1962 he designed his first line of chairs produced by Dutch furniture manufacturer Artifort.
Initially Harcourt focused on chairs for offices, lobbies, and lounges, eventually he moved to designing chairs for homes.
The 042 line was released on the market in 1963 and became and international hit. Harcourt's philosophy is perfectly encapsulated in his words First people... then shapes' meaning that he always took pains to ensure his creations were particularly comfortable.

Geoffrey Harcourt was awarded the title Royal designer for Industry in 1978.

Artifort
Artifort's roots lie in the small upholstery shop set up by Jules Wagemans in Maastricht in 1890. Within a generation the store had became a successful furniture factory and by the 1920s it had expanded into a internationally renowned brand. The 1920s and 1930s represented a turning point for the family business as global economic instability forced Wagermans and his partner Van Tuinen to re-think their business strategy and image. That is how Artifort was established in 1928. In the 1930s the company gained exclusivity to the Epeda interior springing technique. This established Artifort as a leading proponent of new technologies in interior design. en The arrival of designer Kho Liang Ie was instrumental to establishing Artifort's growing influence in the 1950s and 60s. Kho Liang Le not only brought a more modern sensibility to the company and its image, but pushed for the recruitment of new young designers such as Pierre Paulin. This proved to be a crucial move, as young Paulin was to become one of the most influential designers of the 20th century. Thus, French designer Pierre Paulin became a star at Artifort, even as the latter became a leading brand in the world of contemporary furniture design. Paulin's style remains iconic and revolutionary to this day. His use of colors and materials is unique and defined Artifort's collection for decades. Another designer whose work defined Artifort in the 1960s and 70s was Geoffrey Harcourt. While Artifort has remained a leading brand in the world of furniture, since the early 2000s its has re-established itself as a innovating force in the world of design. Projects such as the Apollo chair, designed by Patrick Norguet, are exemplary of Artifort's style, light and modern.
