The MONROE chair (revisited)CLICK TO VIEW PROJECT IMAGES
The MONROE Chair is an exploration of form and function through repetition.
It uses many identically CNC mass-produced components which swivel around a central axis in order to create a complexly curved and comfortable armchair. The challenge was to create one shape that serves as the four main components in an armchair. The back leg gradually morphs into the backrest and the armrest into the front leg. Creating a distinct aesthetic entirely defined by the simplicity of the manufacturing process.
Named MONROE after it’s striking resemblance to Marilyn Monroe’s white pleated dress as she steps over the subway grate in NYC.
9mm Ash Veneered MDF, Lacquer. H: 80cm, W: 75cm, L: 100cm.

Delta KNOTCLICK TO VIEW PROJECT IMAGES
The Delta-Knot was developed as a result of an exploration into the relationship between ‘sustainable’ construction process’ and aesthetics. Looking into how to produce unusual yet elegant furniture using as little time and energy as possible, whilst using neither glue nor screws. All the cuts enabling each component of the puzzle to slot into each other are identical. Achieving fairly quickly something that looks a lot more complicated than it is.
