Plywood chair

Material experiment | 2008

The global chair project focuses on a wooden allround chair for indoor and outdoor use. The main intent guiding the design process was to create a modern, aesthetically exceptional wooden chair featuring a seat shell with perfect ergonomics. To this end, we developed a three-dimensional, organic seat shell structure glued together from flexible plywood strips. The resulting seat shell is extremely light, durable and comfortable. It can be manufactured in an industrial process.
