The Leather Chair

A Danish-inspired chair made with only two pieces of plywood and three crossbars.

In the summer of 2019, I had the opportunity to study Furniture Design under the DIS Program in Copenhagen, Denmark. For my design concept, I aim to make my chair to be a simple and minimalist form using less pieces for construction.

Without using the CNC machine, I cut two sides by laying two pieces of plywood together and using the Biscuit Joiner for a clean finish on the edge. Along with two plywood pieces, there are only three crossbars together to hold the structure. The combination of wood and leather also embodies the classic style of Danish design.
