Furniture: Solid Wood Chair

The inspiration for the design of this chair came from a social housing unit from Cite de l’abreuvoir in the Parisian suburb of Bobigny. Much of the characteristics from Emile Aillauid’s three-point star complex is reflected within the back of the chair. 1” x 1” voids  zig-zag down the spin to represent the way the openings of the building ore offset.
