CHAIR
with Andrew Brown
This chair was inspired by images of reclining female figures sculpted by Henri Moore. The two pieces of curved wood are built up with formed aircraft plywood. The base has a veneer of white oak and the seat of cherry. The pieces are held together with counter-sunk machine screws to conceal the joint and create a reveal between the base and the seat.
