It is a classic and compact dining chair, crafted in solid wood of continuous fluid forms blending the lines between static and ergonomic functions. The design language is biophilic with a strong influence from process, minimalistic but not simplistic, all surfaces are carefully sculptured by function but never unnecessary ornamented.
Addo’s one piece back leg and back rest provides the most comfortable arm rest for a dining situation, with optimal access. The organic shapes allow for a pleasant ergonomic posture and has plenty of rich tactile details to be touched and caressed.
