Orbit chairs are a type of recline chair designed by the Norwegian furniture designer Ingmar Relling [no] in 1976 for A/S Sykkylven kurvvarefabrikk in Sykkylven, Norway.
The Orbit was designed in a functional style, with a distinct curved wooden frame work.
Related to the Orbit is the Siesta chair and, to some degree, many of Relling'ss laminated wooden frame chairs such as Nordic, Tema, Rest, Optima, Bonus and "420".
The chair was sold and marketed abroad by the Westnofa export organization.
During Ingmar Relling's career he developed furniture for the Ekornes, Tennfjord Furniture Factory, Vatne Lenestolfabrikk, Hjellegjerde and Pedro which all have manufactured comparable design as the Orbit chair.
