Story
For future design enthusiasts
Carl Hansen & Søn presents the chair for a younger generation of design enthusiasts. The page says that a simple downscale would not give the same balanced aesthetic, so the chair was specifically redesigned.
Made with the studio
The 14 oak components were designed in collaboration with Wegner Design Studio. Assembly and hand finishing take over 100 steps.
