「Laurus / ローラス」は、合板という素材で再度椅子を作る試みである。切り出した板材に最小限の操作を加えて組み上げるという、最もプリミティブな方法だからこそ可能になるスケールと形を、現在の視点で探った。ユーザー自身が組み立てるノックダウンの椅子でありながら、その”ノックダウン”という質に収まりきらない佇まいと座り心地を目指した。あたりまえの素材とローテクで作る、古くて新しい家具の提案。

“Laurus” was our retrial to create a chair with plywood material. From the current perspective, I have seeked for the possible scale and form, which could be attained just because of the most primitive method, assembling cut-out boards with minimum steps.
While it is a knockdown chair to be assembled by a user, my goal was to provide the pleasant appearance and comfortability to go beyond the regular quality of “knockdown furniture”.
A chair can be made by ordinary material and low-technology is presenting my proposal of old but new furniture.
