A-Chair Wood Base

Echoing his sentiment that ”when sizing up a chair, do it sitting down”, Risom’s design of the A-Chair fuses comfort with a well-tailored sense of class. With the A-frame in the back that cradles the chair, it began as a functional detail and became the signature trait. The slight angle of the back is mirrored in the angles of the arms, adding a sense of equilibrium to the leaned back look. The two-piece back and seat cushion add comfort and are discretely incorporated into the design as graphic elements.
