Story
Strength in veneer
Muuto presents Brink as a chair that joins a slim silhouette with surprising strength. The page links this to years of veneer refinement and sums it up as "Refined Strength in Veneer".
A bend that reinforces
A distinctive bend in the shell reinforces the structure, and softened edges support the body, according to the page. Set on a plywood base, the chair forms what Muuto calls a unified wooden expression.
Repair and renewal
The material tab says the chair can be taken apart into its main components, namely shell, base, upholstery pad and glides, so that it can be repaired and renewed.
