Norwegian designer Falke Svatun simplifies the indispensable side chair to basic elements: sturdy, high-quality form-pressed plywood is laminated with the same wood that the solid legs and backrest are made from. Legs are pinned to the seat with dowels. And the 6mm thin backrest is curved for long-wearing comfort. Manufactured by Danish powerhouse Menu, with an upholstered seat in silk leather or Kvadrat textile.
