The Wooden Chair combines solid ash wood construction with innovative steam-bent beech planks to create a double-curved organic shape. Its oiled natural finish provides warmth and comfort, while the bent wood design defies conventional logic to ensure optimum seating support. The chair demonstrates the potential of wood as a material through its unique curved construction.
The product of an experiment by designer Marc Newson to push wood to its limits, 'Wooden Chair' is a contemporary seat that tests the potential of wood as a material while maintaining maximum levels of warmth, cosiness and comfort. Crafted from oiled natural solid ash wood, 'Wooden Chair' is defined by a series of beech wood planks that are bent with hot steam to create a double curve, in an almost organic shape that defies logic but ensures optimum comfort.
