Country

Australia

This chair is an exploration of simplicity and complexity - a design that tries to reinterpret this kind of elegantly minimal, yet thoughtfully detailed furniture. It is crafted from recycled Australian timbers and finished with natural wax. Developed through extensive iteration and refinement, Folding Chair balances precision, aesthetic appeal and practicality, with sensitivity to both user experience and environmental responsibility.
