Jasper Morrison‘s Plywood Chair embodies simplicity and functionality. Made with an electric jigsaw and basic tools, the chair’s minimalist design belies its complexity. The rectilinear form, constructed from ten plywood elements, showcases a play between geometric angles and fluid curves, creating a balance of essential elements and sensuous details in this iconic piece of furniture.

The chair, born out of necessity with limited tools, exemplifies this approach. Comprising only essential elements, the straightforward design reveals a technical masterpiece.
