Danish Chord Laminated Chairs Brief: :Chairs to be located in Wet Tropics :Light weight and knock down construction :Match fittings and timber with existing table :Use Tasmanian Sassafras and include a Myrtle trip :Durable hard wearing finish My thoughts were to use : Danish cord: Breathable light, and visually elegant - perfect for humid climates. Steam bending: Allows organic curves while minimising material waste. Chrome -plated bolts: Durable in moisture -rich environments and consistent with previous work. Domino joinery : Ensures strength and precision in a knock down design. Sprayed lacquer : Protects the sassafras while showcasing its natural beauty.
