Chair
The Monomorph is a chair that is constructed with 39 identical wooden elements. Working with only one shape to create a chair results in a highly durable, modular product. These triangular shaped elements all come from one sheet of plywood. The 38 elements are connected by steel rods making creating the backrest, seat an legs. The chair can be transported as a flat package and is easy to assemble. The plywood is painted in preselected colors or can be used untreated in the raw edition.
