Title : House Chair I, Ekkamai 10

Material : Old Wood

Dimensions : 0.50 x 0.80, H. 1.30 m

Carpenter : Saiyart Sema-ngern

This chair was designed to be placed at the front of our house, as a place to sit and wear shoes or wait to get into the car. Proportions were designed to be taller and wider than normal chairs to give it an elegant look and resemble an ‘art piece’ decorating the space in front of the home. The original was a natural wood color, and after 5 years the color was changed to black. This gave it a different, modern chic look. The timber for the seat was shaved by the carpenter as per the design sketch, making it look lighter and more delicate. Currently (in 2022), the chair has been re-colored to red, as pictured here.

BH Chair I

Title : BH Chair I, Sukhumvit 26

Material : Maca Wood

Dimensions : 0.55 x 1.20 m, H. 1.30 m

Carpenter : Saiyart Sema-ngern

This casual chair is designed for use at the Blue Harbour Barber, Sukhumvit Soi 26. It is made entirely of new redwood. The carpenter was beginning to gain expertise after having worked together for many years. I provided the design, and the fabricated chair was delivered to the shop in just 10 days. However, the issue of the proportions being different from the design persists as they were unable to source wood in the size and has graced the front of our shop for almost 10 years.
