“I developed the prototype during an exchange term in Australia where I was given an assignment to created a chair using only MDF board and a jig saw. Desk chairs was a challenge to produce something personal and coherent using the simplest means.“
Desk chairs is a knock-down design sold in a flat pack. The five pieces are easy to fit together. When Desk chairs has been assembled, the construction is its expressive feature. Desk chairs nothing is hidden and one can see how the chair holds together. There is a toy-like charm to its simplicity. As a model, Desk chairs is like a drawing that one can sit on, as beautiful as it is cleverly functional.
Desk chairs encourage one to sit for a long time. While working on the Desk Chair Fredrik also had the idea of producing soft cushions for it. The round cushions are a graphically elegant addition to the generous forms of the Desk Chair and make it comfortable. Desk Chair Seat comes in two variants, one in leather and one in cotton canvas. The idea is that the cushions should last for a long time and gain a more beautiful patina with the passing of the years.
